Hi, I have taken Yasmin off and on for 3 years. I have had depression, alot of crying and erathyma nodosum ?? which is nodules in the lower part of the leg. This is a rare disorder that feeds off of Yasmin. When I am off of Yasmin I am fine. Within the first month of taking the pill I will experience sore upper leg muscles and then within 1 month the soreness will move to my ankles then nodules will become very prevleant on the bones of my legs. The nodules grow QUICKLY even over night. At one time I had 5 and the largest one was 5 inches long. This is EXTREMELY painful and will last up to 8 months from the time you quit taking them if you allow it to get this far. My Dr.'s did not know that the Yasmin was causing this until it was so developed. It was so bad that I had to have punch biopsies on the nodules and set off for diagnosis. If anyone has had this problem please let me know what you did and are doing?? Thanks E
