i have been on the nuvaring about 2yrs give or take. Just about 2...

i never have had migraines in my life, and suddenly in november, right when i began the nuva ring, i had my first. my left eye begins watering uncontrollably, and it looks like i'm crying from one eye. as time progresses my vision blurs especially with bright lights, and i get immense cramping in my head, so bad at times that i get nauseated and want to cry. unfortunately, i'm really bad at remembering to take pills, so this is perhaps better than an unwanted pregnancy, but i may just have to learn discipline. this is pretty nuts. i've also lost my sex drive completely, which is terrible for my 4.5 year relationship! it's also unhealthy.

it is comforting in a way to see that i'm not alone. thanks everyone for posting...
