I've been happily enjoying the freedom of Mirena since February 06. However over the last six months I've had chest pain, sometimes severe, and shortness of breath. Been to the lung doctor who was alarmed the pain was not in the chest wall. Just short of going for the chest x-ray I thought...hmm...I wonder if this is an IUD side effect. Sure enough, I should call my doctor immediately upon having this pain. Well, good to know. I'll be calling my doctor tomorrow morning. I also am enlightened by all the severe anxiety reports - I thought I was going a bit nutty over the last six months with anxiety and panic attacks, sleeplessness and worry - but now I'm thinking my Mirena honeymoon is over. Almost three years of blissful birth control, with only crazzzzy side effects for the last six months. Try it, maybe it will work for you, but as you go along, check in with that nice long list of potential side effects, so you can choose wisely about what you're trading for your free love experiences...
