Crease symptoms and conditions

Ok, so I go in tomorrow morning to have my Mirena removed. Can I just say...I have been looking through endless information and posts relating to each of them in one way or another...let me put my experience out there so others can use this information to their advantage.

I got pregnant 2 years ago..and it was not the time or the person for me, so I had an abortion. (I don't recommend it but Im sure there are other forums for that chapter of my life) I was on and off oral B/C and had all the horrible side effects you are warned about so stopped taking the pill and relied on my fabulous judgment and accessible Plan B pill to remedy my stupidity...unfortunately I convinced myself there was no way it could happen at that moment. So I fouled up BIG TIME...

Anyhow, after the abortion my public health nurse recommended the Mirena. Seemed like the answer...like we all thought. I was at my lowest body weight of my adult life. Lean and loving my body. Only less thing to worry about right. So, I got it inserted...I remember thinking that the nurse's comment of "You'll feel a little discomfort" as the largest understatement of my life. It hurt like a b*tch. I suddenly felt like I felt when I woke up from the abortion procedure.

I went about my life...working my daily job. 6 months after my insertion... One day while on the job I had a fall that involved my right hip. It hurt don't get me wrong...but I walked it off and in the next weeks the pain in my hip increased to the point that no amount of vicodin helped and I could barely walk.

I visited my chiropractor 2-3 times a week with some relief. But after a couple of months with no permanent fix I visited my general doctor. Who referred me to a bone and joint specialist. Week later I went in and they suggested that it sounded like a tear of the hip joint cartilage. So the next step was a MRI. At this point I had gained an easy 20 lbs...I am unable to go to the gym anymore because of the horrible pain that is deep in the crease of my leg...like deep to the pelvic bone...and aching into the hip joint...like I imagined sand or something sprinkled on the ball joint of my hip. Radiating pain clear down to my right knee along what I can only call my siatic (sp?) nerve. I was in tears every time a doctor told me they didn't know what was wrong with me...so when it sounded like he knew I teared up with joy. ---

RESULTS OF MRI....nothing wrong with my joint, no tears in tissue...nothing. What in the HELL!!!The bone doctor refers me to the ObGYN...

OBGyn treats me for a possible underlying infection....and sends me for an ultrasound...which reveals a large cyst...nothing to be alarmed about but the cyst "May be putting pressure on my uterus and the pain in the hip could be effected by it also" But cysts as we all know take care of themselves normally...so they tell me to finish the antibiotics and come back in 2 weeks....

2 weeks later..cysts are normal sized...and pain is still very apparent. I always had horrible cramping...so the ongoing cramping after the Mirena insert didn't alarm me. But the ongoing...like 95% of the time cramping was getting on my last nerve coupled with my hip pain, weight pain and countless other seemingly unrelated problems.

So, all this led me kinda to a turning point...with no health insurance I couldn't keep frequently DR.s that had no answers...or didn't ever once suggest that my MIRENA could be the problem. So, I googled...found all this information...and gave up with trying to treat mystery pains and made the appointment to get it removed...LORD HELP ME if this doesn't help me get my body back pain free and back into my 6's

I received a shot on the 21st of march and was told by my dr that the side effects were minimal and I have now been on my period for 18 days straight called my dr and they said thats not normal call your ob dr. Now that I have found this web site I see that I am not the only one who has had this problem. I have always thought it was a dr responsibility to worn you about side effects like this but I guess NOT. And to top it all off the shot didn't even work for me I am stili in alot of pain in my back. THIS SUCKS

I was on Loestrin 24 for about a year, but had to stop and try another because it seemed to not be working for me anymore. I gained 1/2 a cup size (which I don't need), experienced bad mood swings and increased swing emotions, and I developed a rash underneath my breasts, behind my knees, and in the crease of my elbows. I had thought that the rash was my own sensitive skin reacting, but it was not the case. This pill was not good for me, and I hope any woman who is considering it reads these postings and declines it. I now take Yaz, and so far so good! Sex drive has returned and no more bleeding.

I have been on Lisinopril for a year now, and I think I have been experiencing some of the same things others have written about here. I am on 40mg dose and it idoes a mediocre job at controlling my blood pressure.

When I lay down, which is alot because I think I am getting fatigue from the Lisinopril, my heart is pounding so hard in my chest...it keeps me from resting peacefully. When I am standing or sitting I rarely ever notice it. Like I wrote I think it causes fatigue. I would like to know what kind of rash anyone has developed. I have one that comes and goes on the inside crease of my right elbow area. I think it does does a fibromyalgia, as well.

I am glad I am not the only one....I am glad I found this site and know that other people are experiencing similiar things. I am NOT crazy afterall.

Side effects similar to ones stated. Very sensitive to natural sunlight with tingling and burning. Seems to hit my hands, fingers, crease of the elbow and toes. No numbness or anything. Taking 100 mg 2 times a day for lyme disease infection. Seems to cause the nausea after I eat though.

We are experiencing in-crease in anger control(Short-ness with each other). Drowsy after more than nine days still. Paranoid thoughts still accurring. Sex drive has just started to come back. We are also on HIV medications,Myself also taking xanax for anxiety. Dont know whether this is because of the other medications or not.My anxiety levels has in-creased, as well as my social phobia and sleep is producing realistic dreams now. Other medication i'm on are: Xanax 2.5mg,tenofovir (once at night),3tc(twice daily),propanolol(10mg) 2x at night, Pzotiphan(3 at night)sandomigran, Abacovir(twice daily),losec(Two at Night),imodium(when needed), Panadiene Forte(when needed. The drug avanza also 30mg(one at night) gives me a very strange taste in my mouth every morning and my urine reallly smells as my boyfriend noticed too. I'm a gay man, Aids positve 16 years nearly seventeen years now.
