Tired all of the time symptoms and conditions

I think it's really sad when everyone here has the same side effects without seeing this site ,thinking they are crazy and your doctor looking at you like you should be in a mental ward! I took lisinopril 10 mgs for about 8 months I was borderline high blood pressure ,ok I am over weight and did not eat as well as I should have ,but instead of my doc telling me to lose weight(and I know I needed to) and eat better she put me on the drug from hell! I had started walking and eating better since she put me on the drug,at first everything was great I was feeling better I started walking and started the dash diet ,which works great by the way.then all hell broke loose ,I started getting weak ,tired all of the time, my feet felt like they were on fire ,numbness in my hands and feet(felt like I was having a stroke)started taking the drug in may and by thanksgiving I was in the emergency room,I was supposed to work on thanksgiving (I am a bartender)and could not get out of bed,of course they found nothing,I went home an then a week before Christmas the heart palpitations started ,I was lying down watching t.v.and I started having them.still weak and then the palps started,I was scared I was having a heart attack,I went to see a heart doc. and he told me I need a holter monitor for 24 hours and an echo (did I mention I don't have insurance)so after three e.k.g's from different doc's my medical bills are sick and an emergency room visit you can imagine.well to let you all know you are not crazy we all have the same symptoms without seeing this site!My echo and holter monitor test both came back normal,my doctor took me off the meds my bp is 120 over 80 , and I am loosing weight with the dash diet ,and my palps are coming less and less,I don't know how long they will last but hopefully not long.good luck everyone and god bless

I had the Mirena inserted in March of this year (2008)! I hate it! Shortly after having it inserted I developed huge painful cysts on my ovaries. The doctors insit that the Mirena didn't cause the cysts but b/c there isn't enough hormones in the Mirena, they cyts aren't going away on their own. I had the cyst aspirated which caused the remainder of the fluid to leak out causing an infection in the lining of my abdomen. They put me on a heavy dose of antibiotics and hormoned to get rid of the cyst. For about a week I felt better until the pain came back worse. The cyst had not only come back but gotten bigger. I have to take a double dose of birth control pills now to get rid of the cysts.
For the past week I have been having pain again and not wanting to tell anyone b/c I know they are just as tired of this as I am! I can't sleep at night which makes it nearly impossible to get through the day. My doctor had given me pain medication the first time I had the pain to sleep at night but they are gone and I'm afraid to ask for more at the risk of sounding like a drug addict! I can't take these pills during the day b/c they make me loopy and tired and I am a single mother of a 3 year old little girl plus I work full time! What kills me is the that I had the Mirena inserted b/c I can't handle the extra hormones or remember to take the pill everyday! I can't deal with it anymore. I have gained almost 12 pounds in the last 2 months and I am afraid to exercise b/c of the cysts. I am hungry like I was when I was pregnant and tired all of the time and don't enjoy the things that I used to do. I cry at everything..good or bad...and I just can't take it anymore.
I will post back more when I have this thing removed and hopefully will have some good news.
I do feel like I have to say that I hear about Mirena from a co-worker who absolutely loves it!! She has had no side effects and has had it in for 7 years now! So it's not for everyone...but if you feel side effects...listen to your body and have it removed!!
