I had the same issue. I was on Yasmin for 5 years, never had a problem until i began spotting. I was then put on Femcon which was okay, but i had very tender breasts so they switched me to Yaz. That is when My nightmare began. I had massive headaches and sinus pressure.(3 months, every day) Thought I had a sinus infection. Then was rushed to the ER with my heart pounding and Headache. Numbness everywhere. I for sure thought I was having a stroke. At that point i was on Yaz for 4 months. Never thought it was the pill until they diagnosed me with chronic migraines! I have never had a headache in my life and now I have chronic migraines? My Neuro basically said it's you pill and get off it. Healthly 26 year old's don't just get migraines wit no history of headache. Just a warning. It can be the obvious. I am now off Yaz for 3 weeks now. I still have not gotten my period, but my H/A are much less then they were. I am looking forward to being a normal h/a free person.
