I had my Mirena placed in April 2003 after the birth my second child and by August 2003 I had headaches, nausea, yeast infections, severe fatigue, pain and fever. By September 2003 I was fed up and made an appointment with a specialist, at my fist appointment he found a 8cm cyst in my left ovary and the 4 cm cyst in the right. The Dr. made me come in for an ultrasound every 6 weeks and told me the cyst will go away on there own. 2 years and over $10,000 in out of pocket medical fees asked to have the Mirena removed. The Dr. insisted it was not the cause of the cyst or pain and scheduled exploratory surgery. On September 16th 2005 the Dr. removed my ruptured left ovary and found a mass of scar tissue on the right ovary along with endometriosis lesions in on and around my uterus. The pain was gone for 2 months and quickly returned. I asked again to have it removed and when he declined I made an appointment with planned parenthood and had the Mirena removed. Since the removal of my Mirena I have had 1 miscarriage and 3 additional surgery's, I still have cyst on my right ovary and just had my first abnormal pap.
