all these symptoms from stopping the pill? =/

Hi to all...I came off the pill about 3 weeks ago..I was feeling great and then bloating started, terrible bloating! mostly at night but it lasted throughout the day...I still have it but it's not so bad..had something like cramps but they didn't hurt just felt uncomfortable..just lastnight I was studying and...felt super tired and weak...laid down for a bit to wake up with a painful headache and nauceas...ended up throwing up but not much,...how I hate that feeling! ='( I really don;t know what's wrong...I mean are all these symptoms from the pill?? maybe I was better off on it lol ...the pill is the only thing I can think of, me and my boyfriend have been using condoms since I left them, so I don't think is anything like that....! but still the symptoms confuse me..I am making an appointment for this wednesday...boyfriend insisted...but Im afraid all the doctor will say is side effects from the pill and do nothing about it =/ what do you all think? I just need opinions...I feel weird in my own body!...and paranoid everytime Im nauceas! thank you in advance!

Hey, just a question...I was reading some entries on other women going off the pill and having weird symptoms.  I just got married about 6 weeks ago, had my last period on the pill about 10 days after (Around May 17).  I felt great for two weeks and then the cramping...praying it was ovulation because I was really irregular before I got on the pill and was worried I wouldnt be normal.  My lifestyle has totally changes, I was a D1 athlete and I don't compete anymore, I used to run cross country and that when I noticed I became irregular so I cut way back on the running and just do other stuff to moderately work out,  Anyway, I'm getting on with it-  For the past two weeks since those cramps I started off having to pee almost every hour...it didn't hurt or smell (sorry) so not UTI, but started to feel sick and neasuous, appetite increase (if I don't nibble I feel so sick and ready to pass out), and it's gotten worse.  I think my hormones are just messed up, but my new husband and I haven't used any preventive stuff.  I'm supposed to have my period this week, took a test Monday (I know too early but I had to, I felt like ****) and it was neg, but I'll take one again next week.  Just wondering if this is normal or if I really coud be pg

ok so...Im trying not to freak out lol but I can't tell Im scared without knowing it...had a weird dream that my period had arrived so I was happy! I know if youre having those dreams Im stressing about it without knowing it!...thing is I went out with my bf today just to walk around...and I got those kinda like cramps again that makes me just out my hand in my lower abdomen and stop like I said they still don't hurt of course it doesn't feel like a squezing anymore now feels like somebody is pulling something down there... =/  and my boobs have become very sensitive...they were sensitive yesterday too but not as much of today...I used to feel them like that when I was on the pill but god! Im off of it now =(  everytime my bf turned around to just hug me or lean or me..he rub up against me and I would jump! because they are so sensitive to the touch...I really think my body is playing tricks on me but then I wasn't worrying about till now =( but it can't be possible..at least what is it 1 in 100 women susing condoms ( actually more I think) but we are always so careful perfect use...I really don't wanna bescared becuase I know Im not =/  I think lol don't wanna stress cause then I'll mess up my period it always happens!

yes let me know hoe your appointment goes and what they say =) ...well all those symoptoms have gone down, I haven't been nauceas since that day....bloating is less, bue what I seem to be getting are these feelings in my lower abdomen...just uncomfortable it's so hard to explain...it doesn't hurt I can just feel there's something going on there! I feel cramplike feeling without pain...hope I described it right lol I don't know! Im tired of getting all these weird feelings...I did check online about my fertile days just to not freak out about pregnancy...I was fertile the days we were active but used a condom...I'll freak out when my period doesn't come lol but then I just left my pills on midpack so I don't know if my period will be on time =/ what a deal...my bf and me are on if pregnancy happens it happens and will be welcome =)  we are not planning it though =/  but if it happens! it happened...

Yeah I went to the dr and they eventually sent me to a gyny which will be the 15th June so Il let u know what is it.

I heard some people get symptoms quite early but I mean if u been TTC its more likely, if not then not.

I dunno our bodies seem to do weird things lol

thank you for answering red-rose...have you gone to the doctor for your symptoms? would be good so your not so worried =/  it's so bad having symptoms that you know something is going on with your body but then can't figure it out! and sometimes not even the doctors have a clue! I will go to the doc next week...my bloating is just getting out of hand...it gets crazy at night and stays all day long!..I haven't had any nauceas after that night so Im not that paranoid! but I have been having this feeling as I said before it does not hurt, I feel like sombody it's squeezing inside of me in my lower abdomen..but the feeling comes and goes and it's only like 2 seconds worth of time! ...Im not so worried about pregnancy...I know it's possible but something that ruled it out for me was that it could be too quick for me to have any pregnancy symptoms...so these symptoms might be something else right? a I wrong?

You know, thats what Ive been having since I stopped the pill and this weird feeling in my stomach but my pains hurt. But I have milky nipples aswell tho. I asked my gp she didnt mention that it could be to do with the pill but I think u should still go and see what she says. (I stopped I think about 3 and a bit months now and feb I was throwing them up)

Please let us know what u find out cos Ive been worried sick I have cysts or something cos everyone on here ruled out pregnancy ages ago. Could be dif for you unless u feel totally sure u was safe enough...

All the best
