Hi my name is Emily. I am getting my Mirena removed tomorrow after having it in for three years. Loved the carefree feeling of it, hate the side effects. I have been a gym rat hard core for three years...and haven't been able to loose any weight at all! i am 110 lbs and five feet tall...and completely uncomfortable with these 8lbs that refuse to leave my body! i never thought my iud was to blame. I feel bloated all the time....i haven't had a period for three years, and yet i feel like I'm on it every week.my husband is so confused!! I'm bloated, my emotions are insane and i keep thinking "what is wrong why am i so sad?" The most recent thing has been headaches in the evening....every night. And I am not that "person" i never had constant headaches in the past ever. I get zits on my throat and usually have very clear skin. I am happy to get this thing out, and actually looking forward to having a period and just having my body do what it was designed to do on its own.a little scared of pregnancy,but more scared of infertility.
