Yaz I just took myself off YAZ because of a calf cramp that was so severe we suspected a blood clot -- through investigation found out I DIDN"T HAVE ENOUGH BLOOD TO CLOT -- was so anemic they were worried in the ER I'd have a HEART ATTACK. I had just shy of 33% of the normal amount of blood -- no ownder I had headaches, was dizzy, had shortness of breath, etc, etc . . . no wonder, eh? Everyone would APPLAUD my low, low, low blood pressure --- yeah me! Not. Anyone else have serious, debilitating, blood-transfusion worthy anemia on YAZ? or is it just me? KR
