Implication symptoms and conditions

I've posted earlier (June 21). I had mine inserted in March 09 and it has been a nightmare. Prior to its insertion my gynecologist wrote down the word Mirena on a post-it note and suggested that if I had questions I could look for more information on the Internet, but that I should only consult "official" sites (drug companies, National Health Service, and the like).That's exactly what I did. The implication was that the various forums (like this) were full of rantings from lunatic, hysterical women who claim there are side effects when, in fact, there are none.

So my subsequent depression, weight gain, no libido, pain, hair loss, erratic bleeding, etc., are a complete coincidence!

I wish I had instead researched sites (like this) overflowing with the rantings of those "lunatic, hysterical women" (which I did after getting all of those "coincidental" side effects). Had I done that I would have read the truth instead of drug company rhetoric and not had the thing put in.

I cannot believe that all these symptoms come from the Mirena. Does any one know how this can come about? My doctor insists none of my has noting to do with the Mirena!! and my physician doctor don't state anything about it being negative!!! Since the day after I had it put it i had hip swelling and it finally went away, but then would come back. I have my Mirena put in a year ago and still had periods, and it seems like I had some symptoms and then when I had my period they would go away for awhile. The last 2 months I have not had a period and it seem like my body is all out of whack!!!! This swelling or fluid is on my hip, and goes to my groin area and with awful back pain. This is the longest I have had this. I have had an aura migraine last month, I've noticed that i get headaches, my eyes are sensitive to light, my eyes get blurry easy, i'm tired,depressed, anxious , weak. and I feel like I have vertigo all the time!!! it's really getting worse also. My conclusion is that this is an foreign object in our bodies and we are suppose to have menstrual periods and this is stopping that therefore the body is reacting to these side effects because we have stopped something that is suppose to be a natural thing. Our menstrual!!! Let me know what you think? I have been going crazy only feeling good maybe 7 hours out of a 7 day full week!!!!
I have been to the doctor about my problems and they just keep treating me for a pinch nerve and fluid in my ears!!!

I am a 36 year old African American Female. I have been on Toprol for 4 years. I take 25mg a day. At one point a dr. recommended I take 50mg a day. That was horrible. All of my side effects were worse. I decided to break the pills and stay at 25mg. The lower dosage is better. At 36, I look like I am in my early 20's! Most people guess my age at about 24. I don't feel like it at all. I am always tired, I don't have orgasms ( which is bad when you have boyfriends in their early 20's all the time) and I have anxiety and depression. I love to have fun but toprol keeps me depressed, uninterested and I cry for no reason at all. I just feel severely sad for no reason at all and cry. It is horrible. I was prescribed toprol for rapid heartbeat and mildly high bp. That it works for, but the side effects are gruesome! I tried another med for a month and I thought my heart was gonna jump out of my chest. I have 2 sons: 10 and 16, I can't be depressed and crazy all the time. I am very attractive and I want to enjoy life now that my kids are older. I'm getting off toprol!

major itching, welts, and rash. I have been taking wellbutrin for three weeks and I am not taking it anymore! Class-action is in my future! and to the guy who said "you just need a drink" - your implication that everyone is just nuts (as the drug inherently suggests) was really off the mark. You must be an investor in the companies who develope these meds!
