Apparently Mirena was to be the miracle cure to my heavy periods. I must admit after an extremely painful insert of this prick of a thing it has worked as far as my heavy periods go however i am now an overweight pimply grumpy old woman. I have had a skin rash that no one can explain and have been on antibiotics for the last 6 months along with steroid creams to try and get rid of it. I have severe acne on my back, itchy bumps on my arms and legs and my hands have almost blistered with rash. I have put on about 8 klo for no real reason and i feel depressed for no reason. I am either constipated or have the runs depends on the day. I am grumpier than normal and so so so so tired all the time. I put it down to turning 40 but had a brain storm today and found this site. Thank you to all the women who have shared their stories... The answer to all my problems is just around the corner.. I am making an appointment to get this thing out of me tomorrow. I am really looking forward to enjoying turning 40... after all thats when it all begins...
