I am 36 yrs old and have had the Mirena for 7 months now. I spotted for 4 months straight. I noticed my body odor has changed, I switched deodorant and my natural female scent has also changed. I have gained about 5 pounds since all in my belly area. My body aches and feels stiff all the time. It is worse in the morning. I sometime feel dizzy for a day or to but it does pass. My eyes felt funny too, like I couldn't concentrate while I was reading, almost jittery feeling. At 4 months I was feeling anxious all of a sudden. I was nervous about nothing in general, nothing had changed in my life. I felt like I couldn't breath, short of breath. I also wasn't sleeping well or much. Couldn't fall asleep or stay asleep. My doctor checked my blood and everything was normal. He couldn't explain any of my symptoms. I hadn't at that time linked it to the Mirena. I saw a Natropath who put me on vit B6, omega 3-6-9 and a muscle spasm reliever. I was feeling better for maybe 1 1/2 months. But now at 7 months post insertion I am feeling anxious/nervous again. I feel like I can't breath. I feel worse when I am quiet or relaxing. I am going to make an appointment with my doctor to speak with him about having it removed. I hope these feeling go away asap. Along with the other myriad of problems.
