i have been on yasmin for three years. the first side effect i noticed was the dizziness. i used to have awesome balance (i was a gymnast), but now can barely stand on one leg with my eyes closed. the week after i started taking yasmin, i got in TWO car accidents and messed up my perfect driving record. i attribute it all to the dizziness. i have PCOS...severely. my doctor perscribed yasmin to help control the disease and slow the facial hair i was slowly but steadily accumulating. PCOS also caused a me to develop muscles incredibly fast. i had a very boyish phsyique...broad shoulders, square waste, lots of muscle definition. i hated that so much that i felt the yasmin was my savior. he also put me on aldactone (spironolatone - the drug they say not to take with yasmin), but this caused me to become so exhausted and my hair to totally dry out. i went of the medication, but stayed on yasmin. suddenly, i am experiencing horrible nausea and stomach problems. i can barely stand to eat anything other than yogurt. this has been going on for about a month, and i am so sick of being sick! i am also experiencing fluid retention to a severe degree. i am trying to flush it out by drinking tons of water, but i dont' think it's working. i have water in my ears as well. no one has been able to determine a reason that my ears hold water constantly. it's the worst pressure headache you'll ever experience. i believe yasmin is responsible for my nausea because when i had my period last week the nausea went away. sunday came around and I am back on the pill, and the nausea is back with a vengance. last night i dryheaved until i couldn't stand it anymore and just gave up and went to bed. i didn't sleep very well because of the numbness in my arms and legs. it's been keeping me up all night lately. i scheduled a doctor's appointment tomorrow. i asked if they thought yasmin could be responsible for everything i've been experiencing, and they said not if i've been on it for 3 years. i'm so happy to have found this website. it makes me think i am NOT crazy and the pill is really messing me up. i went of the pill for a week and lost five pounds previously. i'm hoping that going off for a while will be the right thing for me to do and i'll have relief from all of these horrible symptoms!
