My next door neighbor is the one who told me about the Mirena and I called her tonight after viewing this web site. She has had it for almost two years with no side effects... do you know people who the Mirena works for? I think I will call my OB tomorrow and ask him, but if I still feel awful in a couple of weeks I will get it removed and have my TUBES tyed. Not to mention I have gain 4 pounds in one week, thats a first in years, I have a inside zit on my cheek, when I NEVER get acne. I only weigh 103 and my hair is already VERY, VERY thin. I do NOT want this to mess my whole body up. As for the sex drive that was bad before I had it place, in fact I asked my doctor at the time of placement if their was anything I could take to improve that. At the time of placement I a also asked if there were any side affects and was told NO. I will be very angry if this comes down to me having it removed, considering I payed out of pocket for it and will have to do something else.
