Lower abdomen pain symptoms and conditions

I had the Mirena placed in Sept 07. I truly thought I had found a great and simple birth control method..I have read many of the posts and seem to have realized some of the things that are going on with me. I have the hair loss, lower abdomen pain, lower back pain, tiredness, leg pain to the extent of not sleeping at night, and the most depressing one is the WEIGHT GAIN! I have always been able to control my weight within 5-7lbs. but not now! I have put on at least 15lbs and can't seem to get it off for anything! It's horrible! I feel bloated all the time, and seem to have some moodiness that I could just scream! I took a low dose of birth control pills for 16 years and NEVER had any of this!! I have seriously been thinking of having it removed, for those of you that have, does the weight hang around or have you lost any since the removal? And, are all hte crazy symptoms better? I would love any information!

On May 11th, Monday, I started feeling lower abdomen pain and though it was gas. When I went to the doctor the next day, she took a urine test and told me I had a bladder infection. She prescribed Sulfa for 5 days, 2x a day. This is my last day and I have one more pill to go. The first day I took it, I woke up with a stiff neck. I thought I was getting better until this morning when, for the first time, it actually burned to pee and there was some blood spots. In addition, my stomach has gotten much larger than it ever has even when I gain weight. I feel like I might be pregnant because a few weeks back I was intimate with a guy and he placed his penis firmly on the opening of my vagina and was there for a while. He did not penetrate because I am still a virgin but could it be that sperm from his pre-cum might have entered my birth canal? But if my doctor took a urine test 10 days after that incident and nothing showed up to show I was pregnant, could it be because the pregnancy hormone wasn't at a detectable level yet? I have no idea. I just know that I am usually a very healthy and clean person and this has just thrown my body off track and I'm freaking out~

I am not sure if Vytorin is the cause. I saw the doctor today. I have taken Vytorin approximately 5 months. The past 3 months I have sever nausea and vomiting, diarrhea, frequent headaches, aches and pains in joints. I have lost 20 lbs. Sweaty palms and feet, chills to burning up.I am exhausted and depressed. Some slight lower abdomen pain. It is difficult to even leave the house. I saw the Dr. today and he hardly recognized me. I have no idea what is wrong, but today I stopped Vytorin. If it turns out to be Vytorin I will post it immediately.

I had a full hysterectomy last year when I was only 32. Now it's a year later and a lot of my lower abdomen pain is still present. No one seems to know what the problem is - I've received two kenalog shots within the last 6 weeks in my abdomen. The bruising is significant, but no indentation (yet). The pain is as bad as ever and now I'm reading all of your postings. I also have a terrible taste in my mouth - and I'm brushing so often I'm actually taking enamel off my teeth. I'm scheduled for another injection this afternoon. Should I just stop going?
