I had the cold type thing.
Apparently it is a form of allergic rhinitis and is recognised in pregnancy.
I thought I had a cold and when 8 weeks later I still had it I went to my doctor and he prescribed an cortico-steriod spray for my nose and now it's pretty much cleared up and what a joy it is to be able to breathe again. Wink

Am I Assumming?
In august, my better half and I Laughing and a couple of days later my breast began to feel sore. Its gotten worse since, I have lower leg pains (while laying in bed), I am having lower left-side abdominal pains throughout the day, getting cold chills every now and then, a few headaches here and there. I feel like I am pregnant. I have been on depo for over 4 years, i've been bleeding for 3 months off and on, missed my scheduled depo injection intentionally (trying to conceive). I've taken 3 hpt and they were all negative Crying or Very sad . I've recently seen a physician and was told that it could be a hormonal imbalance, impending menstrual or I could be pregnant and give it another week or so (for another preg. Test). I was taking mucinex (before we Wink ), to thin my cervical mucus, in order for my other half's Wink to hit homebase. I think it sort of worked, no, the mucus wasn't egg white, but like lotion. I still have these symptoms and now, there are blue veins going across my chest (not breast). Are these early prego. Symptoms? Has anyone gone through this? Help a sista out?! Shocked

It sounds like you are having preggo symptoms. But after you stop taking the depo, it takes anywhere from 3-18 months to get preggo. Maybe you should wait a little longer and take a hpt or take a blood preggo test.
