Hi, i have had Mirena for over two years and only recently have started to experience really bad cramping and spotting. I am so incredibly bloated, i look like im in early stages of pregnancy! I have gained about 20 pounds since in the time ive had it and ive had problems with my joints. I was beginning to think i had arthritis, im only 25 years old! I didnt realize that was also a side effect until i started reading more about it. Well Friday, i went in to my doctor's office to have it removed. Unfortunately my doctor was not in so i was seen by the nurse practioner and she could not find it!!! she said it most likely travelled upward to where she cant see or reach it. She poked around for about 20 minutes before finally giving up and saying, sorry i just cant get it. So im scheduled for an ultrasound this wednesday to find its exact location and hopefully getting it out of there. Im so worried because i have read about other women having to get it surgically removed. Has this happened to anyone else?

I HAVE BEEN ON ZOCOR FOR 2+ MONTHS. RECENTLY I HAVE NOTICED THAT MY LEGS ACHE AT NIGHT- THE PAIN IS DIFFICULT TO DESCRIBE OR TO PINPOINT THE EXACT LOCATION. I'M THINKING OF STOPPING THE MED TO SEE WHAT HAPPENS.
