I posted awhile ago with my symptoms much like other women. I went to my OB today and had it removed. She was totally supportive; I had complained of extreme fatigue and trouble losing weight last month and she checked my thyroid, which of course came back normal. Today I told her more of my symptoms, gave her a printout of this website, and said that while I know I can't prove all of my symptoms are related to Mirena, I have not suffered from them before it was inserted. She nodded and said that she has had other patients with similar reactions! Part of me wanted to hug her (just for reaffirming that I am not crazy) and another part of me wanted to slap her for not even warning me of the potential for these bad side effects. I had Mirena inserted in August 07, so it has been over 9 months. I gained about 5 pounds in the last month, despite good nutrition & exercise. So frustrating. Will try to update in a couple of weeks. Am thinking of doing a body detox program to help escalate the removal of toxins from my body!
