Hello, I'm 30 yrs old and I had the mirena for about 5 yrs. The reason I had it for so long is that I have a auto immune disorder and I thought it was coming from that. But now that i'm listening to everyone else, It's starting to make even more sense. I remember before I got it put in; I didn't experience any problems and I had the immune disorder than but it didn't bother me physically. When my 5 yrs. was up I had it removed and I started to feel much better. What was really dumb is that I had it replaced not knowing that it may be the mirena. Now, I have it in for 3 months now and I feel worser than the first insert. I have high blood pressure now and I never had a problem with that before. My hot flashes has begun after the second insert and I'm having more and more panic attacks now and the only thing that I can do is cry feeling alone and that my family did not understand what i am feeling. I cried to my mom and told her what's wrong with me and I told her it's not the auto-immune disorder because those symptoms only give me dry eyes and nose and other salivary gland problems. I'm having hot flashes and not able to sweat and also feeling bloated even more in my waist line and what tops the cake is that I'm getting pre-cancerous cyst on my cervix now, It's has to be check every month. I told my doctor that maybe it is the mirena and he said no because the hormone only stays below my waist and I said well my cervix is below my waist. My mom said it's the mirena. I'm glad I found this website.
