Dianette side effects? Vertigo, chest pains?

Hello. I have been taking Dianette for 6 months, I am now on a 7 day break. It is the last day of my break and tonight I was due to start taking Yasmin instead. I opened my Yasmin packet and flicked through the leaflet. It said:

Do not take any more pills and see your doctor if you experience (amongst others), vertigo, dizziness, chest pains, changes to eyesight such as blurred vision.

I've had all of those recently plus anxiety and panic attacks. I've been to see my doctor about each one, and he knew I was on Dianette, but he put it all down to stress and didn't mention Dianette at all. Should I not take the pill tonight and see another doctor tomorrow? I am a bit concerned.

If it's the pill that's been giving me these symptoms, why? Is it hormones or something more serious, since it says to stop taking pill immediately? :/

Dianette and Yasmin have the same type of hormones. The only difference is that Yasmin is a much lower dosage(half the amount of ethinyl estradiol) and would probably be better for you. I was also on Dianette and experienced some bad side effects ( weight gain) but once I switched to Yasmin it was much better. Try taking yasmin and see what happens.
