i had mirena put in about 2 months after my daughter was born, first of all just the insertion was excruciating. the cramps were horrible and i could barely drive home and then when i finally got home i had to crawl up the stairs with my daughter. and i never felt right after i had it i was crampy a lot painful urination. my boyfriend also complained about the wires poking him during sex. then about a year after i got the mirena the cramping intensified and i would get sharp shooting pain in my urethra so went to my gyno and she ordered a ultrasound. well in turns out the mirena had moved and was in my cervix so she said she was going to remove it that day and told me it wasn't as painful to take it out. well when she went to take it out all i could do was scream she tried for a couple minutes to get out it was some of the worst pain i have ever felt. she pulled so hard it that the wires snapped out, so she finally stopped and told me that the mirena was embedded in my cervix and i would have to have surgery to get it removed. i thought ok whatever i knew this was a possible risk, i should have known better. well i go in for what should be a quick 30 minute simple operation i wake up 3 1/2 hours later with a searing pain in my stomach. it turns out that the mirena had dislodged somehow from my cervix then travelled through my uterus into my abdomen so they had to go through my belly button to retrieve it and i also have a small incision on my lower left abdomen from a laparoscopy where they searched for the mirena and also filled my stomach up with C02. I definitely think this product needs to be taken off the market and im thinking of sueing.

I just read your post and I really feel bad for you. It also made me feel very sick and I now have a very sharp pain in my head. Hope your ok. I would be scared to death. I think I'm having a small aniexty attack. Good night.
