Wow, my girlfriend who just started this a week ago is having the exact same symptoms as you girls! Incredible! The doctor/nurse just told her to keep going for a few more months! Yuck. I think she's going to stop and try something else. Maybe Yasmin may be the ticket for her? I've pointed her to this link and maybe she should write the drug company. I don't remember having problem on my B/C when I was younger. She's 41 maybe that has something to do with it. I'm a little out of touch with B/C since I have not taken any in about 14 years, so I'm no expert, but I found this site and it's been interesting reading. Could this be potassium problems? Containdication with other meds?
