My eyes are freaking me out. This happened the other night, and now it's happening again. I get a spot in my vision, like an area where I can't see. It's like when you've been looking at a light for awhile and then look at something else. I can't see very well to type right now. I haven't been lookign at a light or anything. Last time this

Do you see an optometrist regularly? It might be time for a check-up.

[spinninghead]

Yeah, I generally go once a year for a check-up, and I get a new prescription if I need one. I think I will call him, though, and see if he wants to take a look at my eyes. I'm wondering if it could be a side effect of the birth control I'm on... it's listed under rare/severe side effects, so who knows.

Wow, I had no idea birth control could cause eyesight problems. Not nice!

[spinninghead]

Yeah... it's one of the rare and more severe side effects... you know, those ones you read that you think you'll never get, like heart attacks or death... figures something like this would happen to me. :/

Sometimes it takes time for side effects to occur. It takes awhile for your body to build up enough of the drug or whatever other reason.. The generic is the same drug. You should see about changing the drug, not just trying to get name brand.

I don't really know for sure whether it could be that I'm on the generic or what. I read a bunch of people's reviews of Tri-Sprintec last night, and a lot of them were saying they had a lot more problems on it than on Trinessa. So that's why I was suspicious.
