Twelve days symptoms and conditions

Hi, just wanted to follow up. I HAD my Mirena in for roughly 3 months. I had it removed after a lot of speculation. I must admit, I feel a lot better. My hair is no longer falling out by the handfuls, my moods have evened back out, joint pain is still there but not nearly as bad. The weight thing...I lost 10 of the 25 pounds within the first month, and have not lost an ounce since then despite a strict diet and moderate exercise. But, the odd thing is, that 3 days post removal, I started my period, bled HEAVY for 4 days and back to normal flow on days 5 thru 8 (yes, 8) but now, a month and twelve days later...no period, and I'm right back to retaining water in my hands and feet, and again have the bloated gut, with lots of cramping. It's very odd...

If anyone can offer some insight, it would be greatly appreciated. Oh, and I forgot to mention, I'm actually dreaming again!!! It's awesome. Sleep is good!!

And another thing, I couldn't help but notice that a lot of women are saying they had theirs inserted more than a year ago...the "IUD" Mirena hasn't been on the market that long. The previous Mirena was a coil, not a silicone IUD. I've been told by one of the doctors at the hospital I work at, that it's more so a reaction to the silicone than to the hormone...food for thought...

And, along with the few lucky women who have been successful with their Mirena endeavor, I also have 2 friends who absolutely LOVE theirs! No side effects, no weight gain, nothing! That's why I decided to get mine, but I knew within a matter of days that something was going on. I wasn't my self, and after never in my life struggling with weight, I all of a sudden was outgrowing all of my clothes. It wasn't pleasant. So again, congratulations to the lucky ones, and for all others, my sympathy. Removal is quite simple, no pain at all. It was over before I could even hold my breath. Felt similar, but not even as bad, as a pap.

I'm so relieved I found this site! I've been on Quasense for TWELVE DAYS and I am in a living hell, I feel like a prisoner in my own mind. Ever since I started taking these pills my mood has plummeted. So severely I had to see a psychiatrist! I am not generally a sad person, so when I realized I was constantly depressed for a week straight, I thought of what had changed just recently, and what do you know? This is the pill from hell. Today is the day I decided to just stop taking them all together.

I am a 66 year old woman in good physical condition(that is until I took Levaquin) I took it in December 2008 and it is over two months later and
i am still suffering from extreme jount and muscle pain especially in my left
shoulder and left knee. I took it for twelve days for a sinus infection and
on the eighth day woke up with great swelling lumps on the back of both knees. Initially thought it was just old age and arthritis. Soon all the joints in my body begin to ache and swell causing severe constriction of movement. Could hardly manipulate the stairs in our house. I quit taking the meds as I had never experienced anything like that before and knew it was the Levaquin. I can only hope that the damage is not permanent but am afraid it might be. I can't sleep on my left side for the pain and it never goes away. Left knee is still swollen and sore. Elbow joints are also painful and hands are sore. I know the medical profession will not acknowledge this so I didn't even tell the Dr. This drug is dangerous
and should be taken off the market. L. H., Blanchard, Ok.

On October 11, 2008 my 14 year old daughter began to complain of being dizzy, headache, faintness, nausea, vomiting and stated that her heart hurt each time she took a breath. This warranted her being admitted and transferred to a specialized children's hospital. They discovered an inexplicable enzyme (troponin) surrounding her heart muscle which only appears when someone is having a heart attack. All of her echo cardiograms were normal as well as her other blood levels. She was tested for all of the typical high school diseases as well as lupus, etc. She remained in the hospital until Thursday and is now exhibiting an irregular heartbeat pattern. After visiting with her pediatrician since her release, it is extremal possible that this is a side effect of the Gardisil shots that she had this past November - February.

It has been six weeks since I was given Lupron. My doctor did not inform me of all of the possible side effects. I don't think I would have taken it had I known of all of the possible side effects.

I was given it to shrink my fibroid and stop my heavy period that was causing me to be anemic. Since I have been on it I have one heavy period that last seven days and stopped...only to have it return two days later and last twelve days...so much for it stopping my period. Compare to some my other side effects have been mild...I think since I can't seem to remember much.Besides the memory loss I have had headaches, hot flashes mood swings, joint pains at night and there are times when I just feel confused unable to express myself.

My next shot is schedule for November...I not think that is going to happen

I was prescribed Propoxy after sustaining a heel injury. A water cooler feel on my heel...and I received a deep cut that required 15 stitches. Bruising on my heel, ankle and calf...was a really bad freak accident. I was taking Propoxy for twelve days and then suddenly quit as I no longer required to take it though I have a quarter of a prescription bottle full of the pills.

I have been experiecing the feeling of nausea...and pain in my intestines as if I was constipated. I called the local pharmacy and the pharmacists says it can give you constipation and so that explained the pain in my intestines. So I am now eating bulk. My tast buds have suffered not hungry nor do I find anything appetizing to eat.

It's been three days since I quit taking the meds. Quit cold turkey and hope to feel better tomorrow after feeling sick for three days.

I was prescribed Propoxy due to a heel injury sustain when a water cooler feel on the back of my heel. Split it opened sustan a nasty cut and lots of bruising on the calf and back on my heel and ankle. First night pain was unbearable could not walk. Stitches to come out tomorrow. IN the meantime...I stopped taking propoxy.

Took propoxy for twelve days. I stopped taking them and then became constipated. Painful thought it was pain in my ovaries then massaged my sides and then experienced gas and still pain remains but it is slowly going away. I also have been experiencing dizziness...and nausea.

Drinking lots of fluids now and just kicking back relaxing while I get this stuff out of my system.

I have been on prednisone for twelve days, due to my Inflammatory Arthritis. I started on 15 mg of pred for 4 days, then 10 mg, and down to 5 mg. Today is my last day of prednisone, although my doctor told me that I could continue to take 5 mg, if I'd like. I have had mild anxiety and diarrhea, which I think is caused by the anxiety. My joints have felt great and the inflammation has gone down. The only drawback that I am had has been the anxiety and headaches. I'd take it again, but I do not like the anxious feeling that I am experiencing.
