Given 2 antibiotics & a pain reliever (did nothing)

States that " I don't know what to do, I have never had a patient with these problems, you may want to get a 2nd opinion."
August 09 (now)
Continue to have same daily, continuous pain & pressure in uterus & rectum area.
Sometimes feels like a bowel issue as well?????? Some sort of connection here.
Pressure, heaviness down into my upper legs & knees feel swollen
Sharp knife like pains in breasts
Nausea that wakes me from sleep
Tearful, sad, becoming depressed, feel like Dr.'s think I'm crazy!
Spending money we do not have on$50 copays and GETTING NO CLOSER TO THE ANSWER!
WHEN WILL THIS STOP??????????????????????????????
Contacted Mirena, they just jotted down notes & said hope you feel better.
Blood work some white blood cells, but nothing major.
I eat Advil like PEZ candy, if a friend can give med a pain med I get a days relief then it's just right back the next day. I don't dare ask for meds from Dr.'s they already think I'm nuts!
I have wasted so much time with this, I am missing my infant experience life, my 4 yr old needs me as well! My husband can not take another minute watching me in pain & crabby all the time.
Seriously, enough already, I get it, I made a mistake.

I have been on Lipitor for five weeks. I can't believe how awful I feel. I ache all over. I my arms and elbows are sore; I have had pins and needles in my hands; charley horse like spasms in my calves (mostly at night); sharp knife like pains in my upper thighs; even my teeth hurt. I am a 46 year old female – I can’t believe this. I have made an appointment with my doctor as I have to get off this drug. I have experienced some blurred vision and hearing impairment too. If I hadn’t of found this website – I truly would have thought I was a bit crazy….
I have never had any symptoms like this before and never thought of myself as an old lady - but that is what I feel like. It is unbelievable.

On 7-1-08, I went to the doctor for ETD(tubes blocked) and a Sinus infection. The doctor prescribed Avelox for my symptoms. I began taking this in the evening and by the following morning I developed mild stomach pains. I went through the day in discomfort but did not think that I needed to go back to the doctor. By the evening (2nd pill) the pain in my stomach increased 10 fold. The pain would come in waves about every minute. It felt as if someone was sticking a knife in my stomach.
This continued through the night and into the morning. At 8am, on th 3rd, I was back in my doctors office to see what was going on. They told me to stop taking the Avelox and put me on a different medication. I then went and spoke with the pharmacist who suggested that I try some over the counter gas relief medicine. I took the gas relief medication and it decreased the pain to a mild stomach ache.
It is now the 7-5-08 and the mild stomach pains are still here. I thought about going to the E.R. to have blood work done to see if there is some sort of medication that can counter-act the Avelox. I will wait one more day. I will never take this medication again.

I had Mirena inserted in Feb of 2009, and bled for just over 3 months after the insertion. I have still gotten my period every month just like normal (7 days of using super-plus protection), AND the mood swings are UNBEARABLE!!!! I get sharp knife-like shooting pains in my lower uterus and can't get rid of an ongoing UTI since having it inserted. I paid for it out of my pocket as I was on maternity leave when I got it, so I'm not wanting to "waste" the money, but I'm seriously thinking about getting it removed. I've been on the verge of a mental breakdown and I've ALWAYS been able to cope with ANYTHING!!! Not sure what's going on, but have some good ideas it has A LOT to do with this IUD...
