Recently, my sister at 39 years old lost her life to a condition called pulmonary thromboembolism, which was directly caused by the birth control pill she was taking, YAZ. I need to know if there is something that we can do. She left behind three young children, and it is not fair that just because a product has a warning label that gives manufacturers a license to destroy a family and take a life. I believe that warning labels on products are just another example of economics being placed above public safety. Please reach me asap if there is someone who can help.

Hi, i am sorry to hear of your loss. I was just in the ICU for the same thing and this was also ONLY due to YAZ! I am extremely lucky and BLESSED to be here. Your posting gave me chills because i was so close to being there and i have 3 children as well. If you find out what we can do or anything please get in touch with me! I will do what i can to reach out and advise people of this issue. I did not realize there was a problem until something happened to me and then i search online about it. I will be contacting my local news to see if they would do a story on it so people are aware!!!

Hi, I was devestated to hear about your loss. Many times I have had chest pains that felt like I was going to die from YAZ. Recently I saw a commercial for women who are on YAZ or YASMIN suffering from side affects, there is a law firm reviewing cases. You can reach someone at the following number 1-866-444-9876. I pray God comforts you during the time of your lamentation and bereavement.
