Seasonale Side EffectsFrom: Leah (anonymous@obgyn.net)Thu Jun 30 10:03:22 2005
Seasonale is currently my last-ditch treatment for this endo pain. I was on six months of lupron treatment, which did nothing. Prior to that, I was on the pill for three or four years without pain relief. I've had a lap and surgery to remove existing endo, but was told the rest is inoperable. They've tried pain relievers, but my pain seems to get worse each passing month. During my actual period, a combination of Vicodin, Ibuprofen, and muscle relaxers still has me on the phone with my doctor curled up in the fetal position and crying. They simply tell me there's nothing more they can do. I tried changing my diet, eliminating most grains, sugar, caffeine, etc. I did this for 2-3 months and had absolutely no change in the amount of pain. I also exercised by walking daily. No relief. I'm in my 4th week of Seasonale, and I wake up feeling like I have a hangover every single day. I feel depressed and blank and I want to cry all the time. I'm nauseated 24/7, and I don't want to eat. I don't know if I should continue taking it for the 3 months and then see. My doctors don't know what else to do for me, and I've already switched doctors three times due to them telling me they were at the limits of their power. I'm only 24, I've been suffering with this since age 15, and I feel like my life has been completely ruined by this disease.
