Hi Everyone!
Thank you so much for this discussion board, it's really reassuring.
I was put on cerazette about 3 months ago (I was previously on the combined pill but made the mistake of telling the dr I had migraines) and I have had nothing but trouble since the start.
To begin with I had a period that lasted over 6 weeks, the doctor told me to just persever (sp?) but I felt like I was falling to pieces. His solution was to give me more medication to counteract the side-effects of cerazette! This is seems completely illogical to me, why pump your body full of medication if the first medicine isn't working!?
Anyway, after taking pills to stop the bleeding, my period stopped 6 weeks later and everything seemed fine. Then my breasts became very very painful! They have swelled by at least a cup size and I constantly feel like I am going to cry from the pain. Has anyone else had this kind of constant pain? My mum suggested I take painkillers for them, but again I don't want to take medication to counteract the problems which cerazette is causing.
I am so worried about becoming pregnant that I have convinced myself that my sore breasts must mean I am pregnant. Because I am so anxious I feel sick all the time, this then makes me feel even more worried (Is it morning sickness?) My bf and I always use condoms and I have never missed my pill, so I know that I'm not really pregnant but I just get so anxious I convince myself otherwise.
I am so sick of taking all these tablets and then taking more pills to counteract the side-effects of the first load.
Sorry about the long message, it's just a relief to know that I'm not alone with these problems.
Best wishes, Hayley
