Oh no, not again!! I'm nearly exploding while reading such stuff. Sorry.
It seems you didn't read all the stories in this forum and especially not the ones of the ladies, who were hit by the very heavy symptoms at once about after 2 or 3 years taking Yasmin and not all within the first months of taking it!!!!
I was doing fine with this pill, too, for about 2 years!!!!! And to all these heavy symptoms I had, I surely would never have gotten used to!!!!!!! It nearly had ruined my life and I was not able to go out of my house, not able to do any housework or do my job, either just because of Yasmin!
Please tell me, how you would get used to daily dizziness to the way were you think you're going to pass out, muscle fatigue in a very heavy way, fatigue all the day, muscle aches, headaches, blurry vision, anxiety, depression and so on???
Well, I promise: YOU NEVER WOULD GET USED TO having your life ruined in such a way!!!
Please be careful about what you're saying here about "there are no symptoms of Yasmin you can't get used to", because there are so many ladies here, who were hit the same horrible way as me and are still suffering from heavy symptoms after getting off Yasmin because their hormone system has a very heavy way to get back to normal!! Me included!!! Didn't have a period for about 5 months now and all the other symptoms brought on by Yasmin either go away just very slowly and moth by month not day by day!!!
And to all users who are thinking about telling similar things (just not to say sh...) like the guest before, please think twice before you post, that you can get used to EVERY symptom brought on by Yasmin!! It really hurts to hear such things if you're going through hell because of this pill (and for me it has been very long 3 years being not really fit at all, getting more tired day by day and the last 7 months without living any more and a long time not noticing, it was this horrible pill)!!!!
All the best to you out there who are still going through the "after Yasmin hell"!!! We'll get better, I'm sure!! We all just need time and many pep talk, and not like the way the user before did!!!

hi abs528, i'm sorry to hear that you have not had much improvement,snap on the sore throat by the way! i had trouble sleeping for quite a while when i was on yasmin last year,i had really scary thoughts and felt terrified most of the time. the best technique i have found to help this is distraction like singing or housework or whatever but just take your mind off it and keep reminding yourself that your fears are not real and that you are in no danger,your loss of appetite is probably down to the anxiety,i lost my appetite and ended up losing 2.5 stones (35lbs) but i have gained 18 lb back now! it may also help to think positive thoughts,i know it sounds corny but if you keep doing it the brain can only focus on one thing and hopefully it will be the good stuff! don't lose faith in yourself...you know this is not you it is this devil of a pill! keep your chin up it will get better and you will feel great again.
