Young ladies symptoms and conditions

I am posting this because I feel so strongly about warning young ladies of the side effects of mirena. I am a mom with 3 small children and wanted an easy birth control. I had the mirena for 2 1/2 years. The first few months were okay but then I started to notice no sex drive, I slowly gained 15-20 pounds even exercise and diet change would not slow down, and i was very irritable. My poor family! I also started having what my primary care doctor diagnosed as anxiety attacks. I didn't even know what one was until I began to have them. I would get a hot flash, my heart would start pounding and I would start breathing fast. I felt like I would pass out and I had no idea where it was coming from. I had to get up and walk out of appointments, and even church. I then googled mirena side effects to find many others had the same experience. My doctor told me he didn't think my symptoms were related to the mirena. I know myself and I know when something is wrong.
I had it removed 3 months ago and I am only now more convinced the feelings I was having were caused by mirena. Slowly, I can feel my body return to normal and have lost 5 pounds. I hope this blog is helpful.
If you are having life altering side effects like I did, insist that your doctor remove it. Birth control does not have to be at the cost of your sanity!!

My 12 year old daughter completed the 3rd round of the Gardasil shot in late August of 2008. School started the next week. A couple of weeks later, she became ill and I rushed her several times to the doctor and to the emergency room only to have the doctor say she had a virus. After 2 weeks of horrible pain, nausea, and headaches, I took her to the emergency room at Wake Forest Baptist Medical Center. She was referred to a Gastroenterologist where she has been going ever since. The doctor has had her on pain medicine since December to help her cope. I analyzed all of her information and compared it to the 12,000 cases in the VAERS database and I am convinced that the shot made her sick. NO DOUBT! The database is located at http://www.medalerts.org/ and you can run the lot # of the dose given to you through the database to determine if their has been any adverse effects noted. The first dose that Lauren had was listed 78 times. Her second dose was listed 70 times. Her third dose was listed 74. I researched the ingredients contained in the shot and the one that I am concerned with is Aluminum. After researching the effects of aluminum poisoning, I believe that she has all of the signs. I begin treating my daughter at home with sublingual (dissolves under the tongue) Vitamin B12 and Vitamin C tablets available at the local drug store over the counter. My daughter has been sick for 7 months and has missed almost her entire Eighth Grade year. As you can see, since starting the vitamins, she has gone from being sick 97% to only being sick 28% of the time. This is a BIG improvement and this may help other young ladies who are affected. I don’t think it will help all, but as sick as these girls are, I don’t see how it could hurt. Her doctors at Wake Forest are aware of what I am doing and agree.

Month Sick Well
SEPT 93% 7%
OCT 97% 3%
NOV 83% 17%
DEC 87% 13%
JAN 71% 29%
FEB 43% 57%
MAR (WK 1-3) 28% 72%

My daughter has been referred to Duke Medical Center now and will go for her first appointment in about 1 month. The FDA and CDC need to pay attention to what is going on and pull this drug off the market. If you have been affected, please ensure that you report your reaction to the VAERS Database. Your doctor is required to report adverse effects, so demand that they do so.

I hope this helps, and if anyone tries the vitamins and it does help or if you would just like to ask me some questions about my daughters experience, email me at ****** and let me know. I will update the doctors at Wake Forest and Duke. Hopefully, if we band together, we can get to the bottom of this and figure out what to do help these vaccine injured girls.

I've not had any experience with the shot. I've been reading the postings and my heart just breaks for these young women. I read a story in our local newspaper about a young lady that was sick from a round of vaccinations. Gardasil came to mind. Almost 10,000 girls have visited the emergency rooms and many have died. We have been so deceived by big drug companies and they have made astronomical amounts of money at the expense of our children's lives. They use happy, healthy, beautiful young girls to advertise their evil. My advice is to cleanse and detox the body thoroughly-remove the poisons. Young ladies you need to rise up and speak out against this-You can do it-You've been through it. You can have an impact because you've been through it.

First off, I want to thank everyone who has posted on this site. My heart goes out to all of the mothers/fathers who feel lied to by their physician, and to all of the young ladies, like myself, who chose to take this shot in order to protect myself and my partners. I have had two shots and WILL NOT receive my third.

I am a healthy 24-year-old woman who started my GARDASIL shots February 08'. The first shot, no problem. Second shot, wow. I felt like I was literally going to break. All of my joints, muscles hurt and felt very, very weak. I went to bed with a 102 fever, huge swollen glands, sore throat and cold sweats. I called my doctor and she said I "probably had the flu before I got the shot and I was just feeling my illness now.." she dubbed my issue an "coincidence". Well, I believed her because I wanted to. I didn't want to think I put myself in harms way, so I went on.

Well it's been 7 months and I can tell you my memory loss, muscle pain and bouts of depression have been a big issue. These are all things I have never dealt with in the past. Could it be GARDASIL, I'm not 100% sold that it is, but I am not throwing that idea out either.

I am really starting to struggle with the idea that we don't know the long term side effects yet.

Looks like we are all Lab Rats.

In seek of the truth,
