i have so many things wrong with me and i would love to hear from all of you, i am [email protected]. i am having this worthless peice of trash taken out of me today and trust me, i want them to pay for what they have done to all of us!

Well it has now been 6 weeks since I started this journey. I have been poked and prodded so many times it is rediculous. I have been doing bloodwork every 48 hours up until a few days ago. My HCG levels went down gradually to 11 and we thought all was well but then they popped back up to 20 and then went down 1-2 points every 48 to 72 hours from there on out. I am finally done with my last level being 1. Thank God. No surgery involved. I called and emailed Mirena and did recieve some response from them. They want me to sign a release so that they can get all of my medical information. I have not done it yet, and am not sure if I will. I think they want to make sure they don't get sued. I have, so far, incurred over $2,400 in bills between the ER and numerous office visits. That's not including the 50 minute drive every other day to the Dr. I guess I should just be thankful that I didn't need surgery. If there is any way that anybody can think of for me to try to recover these expenses please let me know..... Thanks for the concern

Considering it has almost broken up my husband and I on more than one occasion. You are most definitely not alone.

believe me you are not alone, every time i had PMS i wanted to leave my husband or wanted to comit suicide. My kids suffred badly from it as well. I had the worst mood swings you could ever think of. I took mine out on saturday. I still have a way to go before all this s**t is out my system.

Hi I have been visiting this board for a while and I finally wanted to post my experience I know know for sure that all the symptoms that I was expereincing were due to the Mirena!
I got the Mirena inserted in June of 2002 after the birth of my son and from the time that I had it in I started expereincing some anxiety. At first it was mild, but over time it increased so badly that it turned into severe panic attacks. I also expereinced all the other bad effects that all the other woman had. The mood swings, irritability, acne, bad hair, weight gain, and the list goes on. I guess my biggest thing was the panic attacks. For all of you out there that have had one, you know that it is one of the scariest things that you can have! I never considered that the mirena would be the cause, but I can tell you now that it was!! I got my mirena out on April 10, 2006 and since then I have been anxiety and panic FREE!!!!!!! Now, the reason that i am so positive that it was the mirena is the fact that I have not had one day since it was removed that I have felt the slightest anxiety and that is a BIG thing because I was anxcious EVERY DAY!!!!!! It controled my life, almost ruined my relationship with m husband and I was never the mother I always knew I could be and wanted to be! I just wanted to voice my expereince because I am sure like alot of you that these REALLY negative things have to be available for woman seeking this form of birth control. I hope that those of you that still have the mirena and are having bad syptoms that you do consider that this is the cause. Thanks for listening. Be well.
