I just spent the night in th ER for chest pains due to Yasmin. I had been on it for a month and since the beginning I felt something was wrong.. My leg started to spasm and I got these sharp pains in my chest that moved to the back between my shoulder blades. Was told that it was acid reflux and to take tums. Didn't help. Eventually the spasms moved to my upper body (back, arms and head). My EKG, blood test and chest x rays were normal, but I still feel headaches and a weird tingling in my arms and ears are painful sometimes. All these things pains come and go so I have no clue what it can be. Stopped taking it 2 days ago and I'm hoping that it will go away on it's own without doing permanent damage. Has anyone had similar problems that resolved on it own after stopping?

Did one of your blood tests check for blood clots? Chest pains CAN be a symptoms of pulmonary emboli.

My daughter just spent yesterday at the ER, chest pains and trouble breathing. EKG/Chest Xrays were fine. They suggested her symptoms were sports asthma. She was sent home with an inhaler. I fear it is something more, the inhaler has not helped. She has been on Yaz for about four months.
