I HAD THE MIRENA COIL FITTED 3 WEEKS AGO,A WEEK AFTER HAVING IT FITTED I HAD AN INFECTION.THIS WAS TREATED WITH ANTIBIOTICS .MY SYMPTOMS SINCE HAVING THE COIL FITTED HAVE BEEN CONTINUOUS SICKLY FEELING ,CRAMPS ESPECIALLY IN THE MORNING,HEADACHE,CRYING OVER SLIGHTNESS THING, AND THE WORSE ONE WAS THE BREATHING PROBLEM.I FEEL LIKE I HAVE SOMEONE SITTING ON MY CHEST AND I HAVE TO CONCENTRATE ON EVERY BREATH.I HAVE BEEN TO DOCTORS AND THEY DENY ANY OF THESE SYMPTOMS ARE CONNECTED TO THE COIL YET BEFORE I HAD IT FITTED I HAD NONE OF THESE.I HAVE HAD COIL REMOVED 3 DAYS AGO AND HAVE STILL THE SIDE EFFECTS BUT HAVE BEEN TOLD HORMONE IS STILL IN MY BODY SO HOPEFULLY WILL BE BACK TO NORMAL SOON.S.C.

hi im a 32 yr old with 2 children and had the mirena coil fitted due to heavy periods. i had it fitted about 8 wks ago and a couple of wks later found myself becomin extremely ill, i have severe chest pains and a crushing feeling in my chest like someone is sitting on it i also have had an on going headache which can last up to 4 days a time, i get pains in my arms including pins and needles and also painfull legs especially at night when at rest. All of these symptoms have caused lots of problems with my life and my relationship has recently come under strain as i have visted the a&e depatment at least 15 times in the last few wks with chest pains. i have just read your comments and can't beleive what i am hearing. my doctors have done numerous tests including ecg's, heart echos and found nothing which just left me feeling more and more frustrated, has anyone else suffered with chest pain??? after reading all these comments on this site i will be callling my doctors in the morning to get this removed straight away. My doctors made me feel like i was going crazy and made me feel like a hypocondriact. Claire
