Pernicious anemia symptoms and conditions

Hello: I am so sorry that all of us are suffering since taking this pill. My experience with Yasmin was brutal and 3 years later I know am told that I have developed b12 deficiency or a very serious, but treatable condition called pernicious anemia. I never had it before then pill. I took Yasmin for only 5 months and felt sick the whole time. Headaches, strange moods, even a popping sound in my head some times, bizarre symptoms. I called my OBGYN and told he I was stopping. She said the pill did not cause this, but if I felt it was related to stop. AND IT WAS! She now admits to feeling bad for this. She did not mean it. Doctors only know what they read from the literature of a drug. I stopped taking it and was in the hospital within three days. I was in shock. Night sweats, tingling skin, no energy, stomach problems of every kind. Severe pain in my left ovary, suicidal depression and on and on. The worst part is that I began to get sicker and sicker. 3 years later of still being sick. The only thing that has helped my system is acupuncture and a serious diet change to aid my system, I find out that I have a serious b12 deficiency, which I never had. They call it an autoimmune disease which impedes you from processing b12 and all this starts in the tummy! I lost a baby during this time while pregnant, now we know it was this! The Yasmin pill has been pulled off the social medicine of some European countries due to such severe side effects. Their is a girl on this blog getting names together to start a class action suit. I am in. No one can get me my three years of suffering back, or my lost baby or my lost work. I am a professional flamenco dancer and let me tell you it is not easy to perform with a serious b12 deficiency which affects nerve endings, heart tissue and neurology! And the cure for this is b12 injections for life! If you want me to forward your name to the girl with the attorney you can write me at:****** Well I am going to keep trying to be well. I am young and have a whole life ahead of me.

peripheral neuropathy is my zantac "side" effect...the inability of your stomach to process Vitamin B12 is a common cause of peripheral
neuropathy and should be checked in anyone with symptoms/signs of a peripheral neuropathy. Gastric acid inhibitory drugs are being reported, related to prolonged use as an aid for acid suppresion, not allowing the growth of normal microorganisms in the digestive system. This seemingly rare effect inhibits the digestive acids the body incorporates to breakdown and allow absorbtion of vitamin b-12 into our circulatory system. Vitamin B-12 is the "food" our nerves drastically need to remain healthy and aid the nerves to be free from unusual and abnormal degeneration. This excrutiatingly painful condition is relatively high in diabetic patients due to circulatory anomalies associated with diabetes itself. The most common sufferers of this horribly painful affliction, sans diabetics, is long term zantac (or other acid blocker/inhibitors)use. Research pernicious anemia, it is a cause of vitamin B12 deficiency and is associated primarily with lack of acid production. I never read THAT side effect in the list of precarious, but usually long, as to cover any imagined re-action to a drug that can be faintly contrived and cover their rectums from recourse by simply stating...hmm, so sorry, didn't you read that in the danger side effects list before you began your physician prescribed treatment? Surely you read it, right between post menstrual syndrome for men and panties constantly gathering in a group causing a mass, or wad if you will? If I mass produce arsenic to use on acne, am I not culpable and/or responsible if a patient dies from arsenic exposure caused by the application of the arsenic to the acne region being absorbed and doing what arsenic does...such as kill people? BUT I disclaimed that side effect!!!! An acid inhibitor stopping the production of an essential acid?? Who would have thought that the "poison" would perform in the manner it was designed for and who in the most southern hemispheres of hell that showed up at any of their medical classes to earn that MD degree, didn't see that one coming...surely they knew there were "good witches" as well as "bad witches"...how do you discriminate between the two? I would have preferred to drink pepto, eat tums,drank alka-seltzer, or slept standing up as opposed to this lot I have drawn!
