Skin specialist symptoms and conditions

Hi

I took Loestrin twice, both for a year at a time. Both times I haven't had periods for the entire time I was on the pill. To be honest I thought it was brill, the reason why I came off it is because I have developed very large brown pigmentation marks under both of my eyes. At first I thought these were caused by the sun, but a skin specialist told me they were from my pill. Now I have swapped onto Carazette and feel like a balloon. Still got the marks I have been told they will fade but they seem to be getting darker to me and I am wearing more and more foundation every day.

If anyone has any advice I would appreciate it

P.S I too woke for a pee at 3am, never thought anything of it how weird

My husband is 46 years old. He has been taking Lipitor for over 8 years. He has had several of the side effects mentioned. He has had memory loss, pain in his feet and joints. He also has had problems sleeping.

In the past two months he has developed a rash. It first started on his left leg. He went to his doctor and told him of his problem. The doctor told him to just try an over the counter medicine for rashes. He tried this and it did not help. The rash is now all over his body. He has been going to a skin specialist for the last three weeks.

The doctor took him off of the Lipitor and the rash has started to clear up. It is going to leave black spots all over his body. Has anyone else out there had any of these side effects?

hey everyone ,penny here am having hair lose with Mirena and doctor says not for sure its from Mirene what is yall advice.

Had mirena inserted Jan '05. Spotting and such for months afterwards but overall have been pretty happy. Love having such light periods, but I said to hubby this morning that I feel like my pmt is getting longer and longer. At the start I had breast tenderness, bloating, and feeling down for a few days. This month breast tenderness, bloating, and mood changes seem to have started 10 days before expected period. In addition I have been seeing a skin specialist for acne for over a year and still can't seem to get on top of it. Most important for me though is that for the past 18 months I have had trouble with my voice (my voice feels deep and thick and talking is often uncomfortable and I can't possibly sing). Have seen heaps of different specialists and had stacks of tests but there doesn't seem to be any physical reason for the problems. Has any one else had voice problems?

I have had constant dry eyes since on this pill, dry skin, and rashes on my hands/face. Did anyone else notice this too? All the other symptoms disappeared after 3 packs on the pill, but these dry eyes. Since I have another eye condition this could be a problem.

Thanks

I started dating my girlfriend four months ago, in those four months we had an awesome relationship so much so that around 3 weeks ago I decided I would propose to her after our week long holiday. In between that time she on the advice of her skin specialist started taking Yasmin to clear up her acne. Little did I know what an effect it would have on our relationship and her.

From one week saying that she was deeply in love with me to the next where she was having major reservations about our relationship and me in general. She said she wanted someone to inspire her, someone to look up to and admire and someone who was practical. It seemed issues which were only minor or not even issues before suddenly became relationship breakers.

Apart from having issues with me she was extremely moody, could not function at work, could not sleep properly, started swearing at work, changing her mind constantly, she could not make decisions. She cancelled our holiday that I arranged and lost a lot of money on and two days later booked a place somewhere else to stay. Her skin went dry, her nose was itchy, she was not only scotty but snotty, she was constantly dehydrated and had muscle aches.

What I would really appreciate is some feedback on the things she said about me. Now I know there is some substance to what she is saying. I have taken a year off work to study f/t and am living at home with my parents and I am probably abusing that situation a bit but Sydney is a very expensive place to live when you are not working. And I am not at all practical BUT how much is the drug talking and how much is it her?

I love this girl to bits and she still says she loves me. She says that relationally, emotionally, physically, conversationally our relationship is 100% but she wants someone to inspire her.

I would really appreciate your t
