June 21 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.

Hi,

I have two boys and my second son is now 2 months old. I had Mirena inserted at the end of May (it is now June 21) and I have had terrible cramps, non-stop bleeding and things that I have never experienced before like terrible mood swings, I am extremely emotional, feel depressive and dizzy whilst driving up the mountains, etc. AGAIN, I HAD NEVER EXPERIENCED ALL THESE BEFORE MIRENA. Additionally, I had no problems losing weight in my first pregnancy and I am naturally active and slim. This time around, since inserting Mirena, I have not lost any weight in spite of watching what I eat and exercising regularly.

It is Saturday today, just got back from a trip, and I am having Mirena removed next week.

I had a hysterectomy June 14, on June 21 I had a bladder infection and my doctor put me on Levaquin. That was a Wednesday, by Sunday afternoon I could barely walk! I thought I had just did to much and strained my back. Monday morning I woke up with hives on my hands and feet. I had eaten peanuts the night before and thought that I must have developed an allergy to them. Tuesday morning I still have the hives, I can barely get up off the chair and I am so weak I can't support my own body to stand. I am seeing my doctor tomorrow....I wish I had came across this web site earlier!
