I was on Yasmin first and started having really bad side effects like numbing/tingling in my left hand and foot. Headaches were horrible and I was constantly nauseous. My doctor took me off Yasmin and put me through a bunch of tests to make sure that I didn't have MS. Once that was ruled out, and I was feeling better, he put me on Mircette. I did fine on Mircette for about 3 months and then the pharmicist gave me a generic packet. I don't know if that made a difference, but I was horribly nauseous the ENTIRE time, my breasts were constantly sore. Now the tingling/numbness has come back in my lower left leg and a little in my hand. I even had some tingling in my cheek?? I'm off birth control pills for good. There's got to be something better out there.
Has anyone else had the same symptoms???
