Yasmin and one finger

@twogirlsmum:

I'm very relieved to hear that you're not goin to take Mirena, because I really read of so many women suffering in a very similar way as we all do here from Yasmin...

<<<>>

Well, I had that feelings, too. Not in the tops of my arms, but in my feet and fingertips. Most of the time just ONE finger or one little point at my feet or such. Felt just like someone had dropped a little bit of warm water on it for a second... VEry strange feeling which always made me look at my finger or foot to reassure myself, that there isn't anything on it, that could have caused that warm feelings... Seems to be another nice Yasmin symptom...

Girls, better times are ahead. I'm so glad to see, that every day more and more women come around here and are finally able to put 2 and 2 together and get off that Yasmin poison as fast as possible!! well, not glad to hear, that most of you are going through the same or similar torture as many of us... But glad to see, that they all finally have a solution for their health problems and see a light at the end of the tunnel!!

I really thank god for this and other sites in the www helping us that way where doctors don't seem to be able to do anything for us, but tell us, that it's all just us!!! Here they could find so much evidence of their mistakes...

Greetings to all of you out there, especially chrissy, lisa,
and every other woman here, that is finally guiding others here on their way after being very anxious about the future and not believing that there will be better times after Yasmin!! :) I think of you all every day and pray for you!!

Big hugs go out to everyone!!

Hi sherry and everyone else!!

No, my bloatedness didn't ease up at all!! I still feel like a waterbomb, some days less, some days more, but it didn't go away until now. I've started to note my weight every 2 - 3 days and also my bodyfat (bought a new scale therefor!!) to see, if the weight gain has at least stopped or if it still goes up and up... Well, at the moment it seems to have stopped thanks god!! I'm very careful about what I'm eating and how much. Excercising is still not possible for me because the muscle fatigue and breathlessness brought on by Yasmin is still very heavy somedays (especially shortly before my period should start, well, as though I hadn't one since easter this year......).

Well, it looks and seems as if this pill has ruined my whole body, especially the veins (my blood circulation isn't really good, I often get dizzy when I come up from sitting or kneeing which I didn't get before Yasmin!!!) and the connective tissue (I hope that's the right word in english....). I got cellulite all over my body, not only my belly and tighs but also on my arms and nearly everywhere!!! It looks really horrible!!! :(

Would be very helpful to hear, if that endocrinologist is able to help you somehow!! Please keep us updated Sherry!! I wish you best of luck!!

Someone wrote about some heat sensations - YES I had them, too!! Sometimes at one finger or sometimes even at one foot and so on. It just felt, as if I had put the finger or foot into some warm water. Did you mean that?? Well, this has eased up after being off Yasmin for about 5 months (now it's 8 months!!) and only comes up every few weeks for a short time. My MRI also came up normal (no MS or such...)! So it seems to be all this miserable pill, or the hormonal imbalance caused by it!!

HAIR LOSS: YES!! It definitely is brought on by Yasmin or the hormonal imbalance after getting off. Even some women who were pregnant get that hair loss shortly after the birth of their children and it goes away as soon as the hormones are back in balance again!! Don't worry too much about that!! It will get better and all your lost hair will grow back. Especially in an age of 21!! Be sure!!

PLEASE every NEW READER of this Forum go through all of the posts here, everyhting you are mentioning now has been written down in some posts some day here!! I swear!!

I read them all through in the heaviest time of my life and this was the only thing that helped me, not to go mad or give up and lose hope completely!! It's worth taking your time and reading everything here, I swear!! You'll be so much delighted after finding out, that you're really not alone with this shit!!!

Best wishes to all of you!!

Greetings
