I just had my Mirena removed yesterday. I was wondering how long ...

I had mine removed about 21 days ago. I lost about 4 pounds of water weight (including some belly bloating) in my first two weeks. My husband definitely noticed the difference! In the last few days most of my bloating and water weight came back, along with some joint pain and a screaming headache. From posts I've read from other women, it's typical for symptoms to come and go (and gradually decrease) during the first 4-6 months, so I'm hoping this all goes away soon. I've also read from some women who said their symptoms were much worse in the first month post-removal but then got better.
