Q: Recently Stopped Taking Birth Control Pills

I've been on the pill for 14 years. I just stopped taking them the last week of august! I had my period like normal in sept., but it was a week late. I didn't get my period yet since then. It's over 2 weeks late! I still get all of the symptoms of menstruation which doesn't make much sense to me. I have menstruation cramps, and major moods swings! I've fought of feelings of nausea (kind of like motion sickness), and even the odd dizzy spell whenever I get out of the shower. I've had the odd chest pain as well! My sex drive has gone through the roof though! I also have this moisture problem down there that is leaving this slight odor. It kind of smells of urine, but not really! I don't quite understand! I've also had this numbness in my pinkie finger which I don't understand either!
Is this all normal for quitting the birth contol pills that i've been on for so long?
Very confused!!!
