I had this fitted 4 months ago now. I have two boys 6 and 3 since my periods started I suffered heavy painful periods which has been found to be endometriosis! once this was fitted its been like heaven on one part, as my periods are very light and I don't get that awful dragging feeling , but the other part I'm very, very irritated (I'm picking arguments for stupid things and want to kick my boyfriend out) feel very lazy can't be bothered a lot of the time but I used to being up and out all the time doing things! feel some what depressed had really painful breasts the other day for about 4 days they ended up rock hard and huge like i'd not long given birth! or had a boob job!
I've had headaches which my doctor told me to go for an eye test but that was fine my mum has noticed this and has said all this is to do with mirena I'm willing to persist a couple more weeks myself but I think by then I'll of had more suicidal thoughts

I have been on Topamax for 5 years. At first I believed it was a miracle drug. It was being used to treat bipolar 2. Over the course of 7 months I lost 40lbs, which at that time I did not know was caused from the drug. I was losing parts of my memory, and I worked in a high performance sales job, but was able to cover the mistakes. Over the course of the next year and a half things began to get worse. I believed at that point it was my illness. I began to have panic attacks and began to be more depressed. Eventually I had to leave my job 3 years ago. I was given other drugs with the topamax but nothing did anything, so they upped the dosage to 400mg, which put me in bed almost constantly. The dosage was taken back to 200mg. Over the course of this process I complained of back pain, losing the feeling in my left side of my body, vision loss (I had perfect vision before taking this drug) headaches, eye twitching, stomache problems ( which developed into diverticulitis)hair loss. I had nerve testing done, which came back negative. I had the first eye test done which came back with some eye loss. My doctor assured me that the topamax could not be causing any of these problems.
The last vision test from an opthmologist now says that I need surgery to correct my eyes, because of the problems that this drug can cause. He says I need lazer surgery.
Well, the fact remains, that this drug I believe has caused all of my problems. Most of all, my lack of motivation, my depression, and my lack of will to do anything. My sleeping pattern has been totally changed, and I suffer my panic attacks which I never had prior to taking this drug, and anxiety. I have no libido, which I believe has been a gradual thing, it was not immediate.
I am now weaning myself off, and it is not easy. The lower dosage has withdrawl effects, and the fear of weight gain has always been a problem. However I realize now after researching this drug to great extent the long term effects are not worth weight loss, and natural products maybe the better solution.
