I just happened upon this site and I'm so glad I did. I have been diagnosed with panic disorder when I have never had panic attacks in my life. I fainted in January and spent six days in the hospital undergoing dozens of medical tests only to find out I was having severe panic attacks. I was taking Yasmin for two months and went off cold turkey on January 10th. On January 14th was the day I fainted and all of the panic symptoms started. Be very very careful with this medicine. I had NO idea until now that my symptoms could be connected to the Yasmin. Like many others here, I have been tested for everything from heart problems to autoimmune disorders. This is the only medicine I was on. I am now having to take Lexapro since getting off of the Yasmin. I am 27 years old.
