I gave the shot a go. I got it on the 17th of last month, since then i have had the following..
migraines almost daily- Like head splitting "get out of my face" migraines.
(that has been the most consistent)

the past week:
lower back pin, bloating,cramping, tossed my cookies twice today, tired..so tired.

I mean i feel preg. I know this BC is supposed to have some of those trick symptoms.
I'm just really upset because my doctor told me that my migraines would go away. I told her i get them with my period and she said they should go away on depo.
The rest is just annoying and i dont want my boss to think that i am preg. there are two other girls at work, one just popped and the other just found out she is and my big boss is NOT happy about it. i'd be a nightmare if it happened to me! hence i got on this thing.
I wonder if the mini pill is still available and an option. I wanted to do ring but insurance doesn't cover it.

that stinks. as i was reading your post i was going to suggest the ring. mine isnt covered either, but i figure with the lack of migranes its worth the 25$ i spend on it a month since i would be spending it on advil. i would ask the doctor about the mini pill.

it's too new..new inventions like that scare me. The idea that it is a possibility that it can rip threw my tube just was an immediate turn off.

yea the ring here is soooo expensive. spoke to my advice nurse who said she is just gonna put me on mini pills when this thing is drained out. I've just been so sick and grumpy. Poor mya has had to deal with it nd that isnt cool with me.

I HATED the shot. I had horrible side effects. Hope you're better on the mini pill.
