Hi all,
I have been off the pill now for almost three months - (after being on it for 11 years) and I have many side effects. Despite that my gym & eating habits haven't changed and I workout regularly -- I have gained about 6-7 lbs in the last 2 months. Another side effect, I have noticed that my ability to workout with intensity has changed -- I get winded and have to slow down alot b/c I feel that my heart is going to come out of my chest. Feelings of dizziness and nausea. I used to do a lot of Heated Yoga (for years with no problems) and now... I have to stop during class to make sure I don't faint or get sick. Its all very bizarre!
ALSO, my joints - they are stiff and "crack" alot when I move or get up. Never before did I ever have this problem?

Does anyone have (or HAD) these same side effects? AND what have you done about them? Does this all go away over time ? or is this going to be the "new way of life" for ,e ?
