I'm very curious to read all these side effects! I have some stra...

I have only had my mirena in for 3 wks - but I am occasionally experiencing pretty severe joint pain - knees, elbows, ankles and wrists - especially. Also I'm having indigestion and bloating almost daily. Good Luck! I have yet to decide if I am keeping Mirena or not?!?!?

I get a lot of the same pain i thought it was the same thing you did maybe it's a side affect. it's been driving me crazy sorry maybe you we should get it removed so the pain will go a way I'm 24 too young to feel this way lol sorry

Bayer, the manufacturer, talks about this side effect in their pamphlet for the Canadian market: skeletomuscular pain. 0.3 percent of women reported them after three months, and 1.0 percent after 5 years.......

i had it put in on the 3rd and im feeling over tired also but i havent gotten any of the the other symtoms

Yes, I have all kinds of negative side effects since I had the mirena inserted in me for 16 months now. I kept ignoring them all because as I went to get a checkup with my ob/gyn and told her of my weight gain, she just said I ate too much. My doctor is so wrong becaue I even ate less and still do my regular exercises and I 'm a health fanatic too, watch what I consumed and kept my weight under 120 forever and after three months I've gained 10 pounds and no a totaled fo 20 pounds, wow! That's scary!

Well, at 15 months with mirena, I started feeling very nausea that I vomitted for 4 hours and then hell breaks loose! I never stopped feeling nausea, I started getting swollen ankles, painful, very tight on the tendons, joints, and archilles too as I walked up the stairs. Not just that, I became very exhausted, drained, stressed, acne everywhere, and so I went to my primary doctor who had no idea what's been going on with me, she got my blood results back and told me I had Thyroid problem! This shocked me because I've never had any health issues before in my life so I inquire online about Thyroid and it lead me to "Mirena" and lord and behold, I ran into all these testimonies of all the women who suffered from Mirena. Boy, I'm glad I know now because in 12 days, I have an appointment to remove this stupid, Foreign object out of me forever! Please stay away from this MIRENA!!!!
