MENSTRUAL CYCLE-PLEASE READ!
PASS THIS ON EVEN IF YOU DO NOT USE IT
Recently this past week, my cousin Nicole Dishuk (age 31...newly grad
student with a doctoral degree about to start her new career as a
Doctor...) was flown into a nearby hospital, because she passed out.
They found a blot clot in her neck, and immediately took her by
helicopter to the ER to operate. by the time they removed the right
half of her skull to relieve the pressure on her brain, the clot had
spread to her brain causing severe damage.
Since last Wednesday night, she was battling.. they induced her into
a coma to stop the blood flow, They operated 3 times.. Finally, they
said there was nothing left that they could do.. they found multiple clots
in the left side of her brain.. the swelling wouldn't stop, and she was
on life support..
She died at 4:30 yesterday. She leaves behind a husband, and a 2yr
old Brandon and a 4yr old Justin.. The CAUSE of DEATH - they found was a
birth control she was taking that allows you to only have your period
3 X's a year... They said it interrupts life's menstrual cycle, and
although it is FDA approved... shouldn't be - So to the women in my
address book - I ask you to boycott this product & deal with your
period once a month - so you can live the rest of the months that your life
has in store for you.
*Please send this to every woman you know - you may save someone's
life... Remember, you have a CYCLE for a reason!
Fyi.
The name of this new birth control pill is Lybrel. If you go to
Lybrel.com ; , you will find at least 26 pages of
information regarding this drug.
The second birth control pill is, Seasonique. If you go to the
website of, Seasonique.com ; , you will find 43 pages
of information regarding this drug.
The warnings and side effects regarding both pills are horrible.
Please, please forward this information to as many daughters AND
sons, co-workers, friends and relatives. Several lives have already been
changed.

theatre and I are there already. I'm having a very berry tea with crackers, cheese and cherry tomatoes and she's having a joint with some beer and we're both on really comfy recliners on thick pile carpet. we need some help with the decor if anyone is around??

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
One has to wonder how it can be healthy to not have periods. Like JSS said, all BCPs have risks.
Well, like I always say - when it comes to hormones, as BPs we have to be vigilant - and stay away from Progeserone!!! Blah.

Didn't even think to look at Snopes! At first thought it was Isis' family member!
Well, I stick to what I said anyways!!
MDs hand them out like candy without taking a good history and family history. Many people taking them should NOT be taking them at all because of family history.
Anyone on BCPs should get some blood studies to see if their clotting mechanism is getting screws up and immediately go off if that is the case.
