Pain thanks symptoms and conditions

I had my Mirena put in about 7 months ago, since then i have been getting sicker and sicker. I was just diagnosed with hypothyroidism in June, but my TSH level is almost back to normal now and I still feeling so ill. I have gained 15 pounds, feel very emotionally unstable, I'm moody, fatigued, have constant joint and muscle pain! I am so depressed and no matter what i do I just can't feel better! I just want to die! My husband had a hunch that it could be the IUD causing this all and started researching it. He found this website and read to me what everyone had said. I was shocked! I'm a nurse so i got off the phone with him and removed it myself, which I do not recommend if you are not a health care professional. I'm sure it's just in my head, but I feel better already! I hope that all of my symptoms resolve now, but either way that is one less thing that could be causing my symptoms. I hope this helps others and let me know if you also had joint and muscle pain! Thanks and GOOD LUCK to you all!

HI, I just read all of your comments regarding Mirena and I cannot believe how exact your side effects are how I feel. I am on antidepressants for my PMDD, which I had prior to insertion and I gain 10 lbs per period. I cannot lose the last 10 lbs of baby 10/29/06 even though I road bike 3 to 4 times a week for 45 minutes a day.

I thought I was just getting old!

I had terrible pain and bleeding for the first 6 months and then things were good, but I have terrible pain during sex and terrible side pain.

Thanks! I think I am getting mine removed!

I,ve had mirena for 2 1/2 yrs and it has been the worst 2 1/2 yrs ever! I went to the ob 8 months ago to have it removed and my Dr. would not take it out she said that there was no possible way that it could be causing my 6 days in a row migraines that only respond to imitrex nothing else. So for the past couple of days I've been trying to make an appt to have
mirena taken out but the appts are like 2 weeks wait. I removed it myself this morning took a while to find it, hope this doesn't offend anyone I just wanted it out that bad. I really hope I start to feel better and that all the symptoms tat I have been having are not all in my head. My symptoms include no menstrual bleeding but instead a viscous cycle of Pms, cramps, headaches and fatigue that never go away. For the past 10 months I,ve had migraines and have been taking imitrex consistently. I don't ever feel like getting out of bed and my 2 oldest kids don't understand why I'm so ill and my youngest 2 1/2 says mommy has a headache, all day long. I'm curious to know if any one else has had migraines or chronic neck pain? Thanks.

I was on Yasmin for two months and then switched to the new generic form this month, completed two weeks and now I am taking myself off of the pill due to the following side effects: anxiety, crying over every little thing, insomnia, tiredness, extreme hunger, sore and swollen breasts, ear aches, constipation, and leg cramping.

Is there anyone out there that has had severe chest pains, particularly in the sternum region, on the ring? I've had mine out for two days after weeks of RAGE and back pain...along with chest pains and heart palpitations. Just hoping the chest pain and pressure will subside.
Thank you.

DOES ANYONE HAVE ANY ADVICE ON HOW TO GET FOSAMAX OUT OF ONE'S SYSTEM? ANYTHING TO LESSEN THE JOINT AND MUSCLES PAIN? THANKS!

i would like to know if you feel any pain when removing Mirena ... on insertion i only had some slight period pains and only one night with cramps and thats all, i got used to it and prefer it from the pill but now its time to take it out,and i wonder after 5 years how it is going to get out without pain.thanks and good luck.

I was given the four month injection three weeks ago to throw me into menopause because I have breast cancer.
I have had breakthrough bleeding two weeks and the third week I have had excrutiating neck and back pain.
Mild night sweats, no hot flashes. Anxiety.
Pls e-mail if you have experienced the bone pain. Thanks.

Very grateful to see I wasn't going crazy! I have had major hip joint pain and insomnia after a couple days of taking Levaquin. I luckily only have 2 days left and am looking forward to returning to normal after I am done. Granted, I was recently diagnosed with arthritis in my hip, but the stiffness and pain has gotten so bad at times I couldn't even stand up straight because of the pain and ended up having to take Celebrex to relieve the pain. Thanks for everyone posting.

I had a Kenalog injection 5/5/04; nothing mentioned about "dimpling" or any other side effects. Helped allergies ok; however, after 4 months I have this huge indention in my upper buttock. Not only that, I am unable to put any weight on my left foor/leg first. Have to use my right foot in order to get my left leg up the stairs second. Severe pain in that hip area as well as when I sleep, sit and walk. Dr. said "oh it would go away in a year" so live with it.
Any suggestions to help the pain??
Thanks,
CJ

I started taking Desogen about a month and a half ago and in the beginning I didn't notice any side effects. About 2-3 weeks into taking it, I realized that my sex drive was very low, and unfortunately it is still low! It's extremely frustrating not only for me, but also for my boyfriend. I then become very stressed out because I know my boyfriend is frustrated with me. I have also noticed that I am quick tempered a bit more lately, and I'm more sensitive resulting in me crying more easily. A side effect that I have not read in this column is one that I may be experiencing. For almost a month now, I've had a burning sensation every time my boyfriend and I are having sex and I'm not sure if this is a result of Desogen. I hate it because when I do want to have sex I can't because it burns so much. If anyone else is experiencing this pain and taking Desogen please let me know. I'm going to the doctor soon but it would be helpful to know if anyone else is going through such frustrating pain. Thanks!

i take verapamil for migraines and it makes my teeth and gums hurt...is this normal...please get back to me soon...im in lots of pain....thanks
