When my son was 6mos old I had the Mirena placed. I had spotting for about 6 weeks (which I was informed would probably happen so I wasn't too upset about that.) The 4th month of having the Mirena I started getting severe anxiety, mood swings and bloating. I also have an itchy, flaky scalp that started around 3 or 4 months after placement. I never made the connection that all of this could be caused from the Mirena until today when I had it removed because my husband and I want to have another child. After I had it removed I went home and took a nap. Literally, 2 or 3 hours after it was removed I felt like myself again. I was on the verge of an emotional break down and didn't know why...and I just thought I had better pick myself up and quit whining. It felt like my life was spiraling out of control but nothing external was happening to make me feel so panicked all of the time. I thought it was an odd coincidence that I felt better all a sudden. That's what prompted me to check online to see if anyone else had experienced this. Anyway, after I read a lot of the entries I felt relieved and hopeful to continue to feel like myself again.
