I'm a 21 year old mother of one 4-year old. I recently got my Mirena put in on March 11, 2008. Insertion was painful but the cramps went away pretty quick when i left the doctors office I tried to feel for the string but i never felt it so i assumed that my fingers were to small to reach so i just forgot about it. My boyfriend and i had sex the next week and it felt much much different. It felt as if his penis had doubled in size or something. I just know that it HURT a little more but it was still somewhat enjoyable. Since then I got my period last monday March, 26th and I'm still bleeding 9 days later! It's very frustrating. My head is spinning all of the time, I black out, and i twitch like something is wrong. I've gained weight, I have intense migraines, and i'm scared!!!!! Today is the 4th of April and i want it removed so badly. I just left the doctors office for my follow up, so that he could make sure my Mirena is in place. GUESS WHAT.... HE COULDN'T FIND THE STRING to the Mirena....so now i've got an ultrasound appointment on Tuesday. I'm terrified that this thing is floating around somewhere in my body doing damage. My significant other is devestated because he is in fear that we can't have children together and he has already made himself distant. It's a very stressful situation. I'll keep you updated....

i had the Mirena put in on march 12th really had no problems until now. today is march 30th and i can feel the strings almost coming out of me and the poke me inside. it also feels like a huge tampon is shoved way up in there and is poking me from the inside when i sit down. i am also on a dr. prescribed weight loss pill the first month i lost 10lbs. then since i had this put in i have only lost 2 lbs. in a month. i feel extremely bloated too. i didn't know if any one else felt like this. i go back to the dr. on April 8th for my check up.

I took Levaquin for a sinus infection March 26th... 5 doses of 750 mg. I felt slightly better initially but that lasted only a day. I think it was prescribed wrongly, I had a virus and was getting over it... not a bacterial infection. The problems started about a week after the 5 day course ended. I ended up in the ER feeling like I was going to die, some strangeness in my breathing and feeling as if I was having a stroke... like I was going to pass out. They found nothing wrong except an elevated blood pressure and did a d-dimer to see if it could be an embolism (at my insistence, I had no idea this could be from levaquin and thought I was having a stroke. After the ER visit, I just felt like I had the flu, but I didn't... weak, extremely tired with some muscle aches ... two weeks out I had a lot of pain in both legs, like charlie horses that didn't go away... that lasted several days to a week... the weird depersonalization and the anxiety has been intense throughout. Constipation (never ever had it before this drug) started about a month out from taking it. I still feel pain in my legs from time to time and a feeling like there is a tight band across the top of my left foot... like when you tie your shoe too tight and need to loosen the shoe strings, but I am not wearing shoes.
