I have been taking ortho-cyclen since I was 17 with the exception of one year taking seasonal (which was a really bad one for me) I am 24 now and for the last 2 months I have felt sick and what seem like pregnancy symptoms. Took several tests all negative and had a period last month. I am mid cycle and am thinking about just stopping the pills and switching to condoms. Has anyone else ever had this happen where the pill just all of a sudden makes you sick.

Sick feeling could be a pregnancy symptom but negative pregnancy test excluded that. Sick feeling can be also a side effect from the contraceptive pills but if it was so the symptoms should began when you started taking the pills and not 2 months ago.
Of you believe that your sick filling is due to the contraceptive pills you can quit the pills and see what will happen.
