Cable guy symptoms and conditions

I am 40 yrs young.... I have terrible PMS with anger to rage mood swings that are sinful.... I considered the birth control pills but my life is simply too busy & I wouldn't remember to take them... I used the BC patches which worked fine but left a rash on my backside..... I had to stop using it because I had high blood pressure and it increased my risk of stroke/ heart attack.... . I felt like the Mirena was a good fit because I wouldn't have to worry about birth control for 5 yrs....At 40, I'm just getting started with all the "FUN"...LOL... I had the copper IUD but it made my periods long (up to 7 days), heavy & I had horrible cramps....

I got the IUD inserted last week Wednesday, yeap, it hurted like H3!! going in.... as soon as my GYN was done putting it in, I had really bad heartburn for a few hours..... I had a tightness in my chest and a dull pain in my left thigh.. she said it was normal and just take some Advil... the next few days I had some light bleeding and cramping...I also had diarrhea for three days.

On the 3rd day, I noticed a serious mood change.. I was going about my day just fine than I got really bitchy.... I snapped at my co-workers and I was down right irritable..... like the PMS mood swings I was trying to get rid of.....

I don't know if its Mirena or me but my sex drive has skyrocketed--- I can't get enough-- I'm thinking about & wanting sex all the time.... engaged in risky encounters with my BF while the cable guy was in our home.... I'm tempted to call the telephone installer to hook up with him... WHY????? ... this is not who I am... I'm mousy & conservative.... I've never felt like this before....

I was concerned about the possible weight gain (i'm 109 lbs on a small frame) because I don't want to gain any more than 5 lbs... I noticed I was eating a lot of cookies ( which is what I crave during PMS) this weekend and had a taste for fried fish.....

I had this feeling of a lump in my throat and a dull ache on my spine.... I also feel like I have to have a bowel movement but nothing comes out.... it usually starts with a cramp like bubble gut but nothing comes out ?????

I've started a journal of my mood, appetite, weight changes and sleep patterns to report back to my GYN in two months.... Honestly, if in two months, things get worst, it's coming out....I already use condom so I'll just have to be extra careful....

I wish I had found this website before I put it in.... I will keep reading here and post an update after my return visit to my GYN in 2 months.... I hope this helps some has much as reading the other post had helped me... Peace to us All...
