Mid 40s symptoms and conditions

I am scheduled to get Mirena tomorrow and after reading this will call and cancel! I went off the pill five days ago in preparation for Mirena and haven't felt this good in years! My doctor recommended Mirena and said she even uses it herself. But I'm super sensitive, can't even tolerate anything but the minimal dose BC pill because my breasts are cystic and hurt all the time. I am certain I would get all the terrible side effects you all are describing, I am the type who's prone anyway, and from what I see hear, this is NOT for me. THANKS.

I've only been on Effexor for about a month; 75 mg daily. The only "bad" side effect I've felt so far is that I feel the room is too warm, even when others are okay with the temperature. The "good" side effect, contrary to what so many have posted here, is that for the first time in my life (I'm in my mid 40s), I am NOT having nightmares/night terrors. I've been plagued by these all my life, anywhere from several a night (during really bad spells) to a few a week (during good spells). For the last month, since getting on Effexor, I have not had a single nightmare and I've slept soundly, without waking up either paralyzed with fear, screaming, or thrashing about in the bed.
