Wow. I have an appointment to go get my blood work done, because ...

I had an appointment to have mine removed, but couldn't wait anymore. I had to go to a walk-in clinic. Also, my husband told me not to come home until that devil was out of me! LOL. He would never dream of saying anything antagonistic to me in the last 3 years... until finally we found out what it was! Your story sounds a lot like mine. I got the Mirena right after my kids were born, twice! So all the symptoms were blamed on postpartum hormones or a change in life-style.
I had my blood tested twice. It was normal. My husband started to think I was a hypochondriac, because I know too much medical stuff.. he says. ha ha... After watching Oprah, I was sure I was peri-menopausal... at 35. Or maybe it was my thyroid. That would explain half of my symptoms. Now it all makes sense!
I had mine removed 5 days ago. I feel terrific! I made a post on the site of my symptoms over the last 5 days.
Please get yours removed ASAP, and let us know how you're feeling..
Good luck!

I've had the mirena for almost 2 years now and I also have mood swings. One minute I'm happy the next I flip out or I'll start crying my husband thinks im crazy as well he tells me i have a hormone in balance or something. I have been having breast tenderness and really bad cramping and im just curious if anyone else has these symptons along with really bad headaches every day is all because of the iud
