I got Mirena in March 2009 as my ob thought it would be great for me. Shortly after, I started having nausea, headaches, pregnancy symptoms (big appetite, cravings, swollen stomach, etc), hot flashes, severe mood swings, extreme uncontrollable behavior, no sex drive (partly due to constant brown discharge & the sweating from the hot flashes I always felt gross). Luckily, my husband & my family know me enough to know that this wasn't like me. My husband recognized that the time that it all started is when I had Mirena put in. I had it removed Thursday, July 9th, and things are getting back to normal. It is really scary that a drug can have this type of effect on someone. If my husband wouldn't have recognized that it wasn't me, we would've ended up divorced b/c I know I was an emotional wreck!! I really wouldn't wish this on my worst enemy.
