A friend of mine returned to work a couple of months ago after suffering from a stroke that they think was caused by taking the pill. She’s only 23.

While at college, I went to the Dr requesting something to help me get through my cycle so I wouldn't miss days of student teaching. The Dr, in his zeal for abstinence, went off on a tirade about premarital sex and then gave me the pill. A few days later I had a migraine that lasted several days!! It also messed with my vision for months. When I was well enough, I read the package and called him! I asked him if he had intended to see if he could kill me with a blood clot, or what and told him what had happened. He told me to get off the pill right away! DUH!

I was blessed that all I had for the problem was that. It could have been worse. His zeal for a good thing kept him from asking for my medical history properly. Had he checked my files, he would have known!

God created women's bodies so unique that to use the chemicals in any form for contraceptives throws the natural balance out of whack. If any of you get a chance to hear Vicki Thorn's presentations, it is awesome!! She has an abstinence program that gets through to teens and adults and makes sense. If any are interested, I think I have a link...Freepmail me for it, if you like.

Tighty, how'd your friend do? Full recovery?
