I have had my Mirena removed since last Wed. 8/12/09. I started what seemed to be a period on Friday and only went a couple of days. Not heavy at all. I can totally tell something has changed. I have more energy, I sleep better at night, no night sweats, my aches are almost gone. It was getting where it hurt to walk by legs ached so bad, but now it doesn't. I haven't really experienced any crash so I'm thankful for that. My hair is not coming out as bad. I seriously can't believe that the birth control Mirena was causing all of my health issues. I can't believe that any woman would want to go through this. It seems to me that more than less are having these terrible side effects due to Mirena which tells me that it has not been properly tested before being put out there for us to be the guenie pigs. I am so happy to have that removed and my life is finally getting back to normal.
Good luck to all of you.
