That's what I did but all the sites really mention is the possible side effects. I don't see how they can correlate having your gallbladder out with birth control? I've heard that gallbladder removal was common. I have been on Yasmin/Ocella for about 6 years.

It isn't THAT common...and if a lot of people on any medication are having it done, that would definitely raise a red flag.

True. Maybe it seems more common now that I've had it done? It seemed like everyone I had run into had theirs out, old and young.

I'm on ocella and haven't had any trouble, but now I'm a little worried.

About the sickness thing, when I first started the pill my mother told me to take it at night because she always felt sick when she took it in the morning. Also try taking it with food it will probably hit your stomach better.

I think that's kind of like when you buy a new car and all of a sudden it seems like everyone on the road has the same model. :) You are just more aware of it than you used to be.
