I too have experienced chest pain/heart pains after the insertion of Mirena IUD. I had it inserted 2 weeks ago and one week ago is when I started experiencing the pains. I also have pain in my left shoulder and arm and my back. My doctor's Medical assistant said the Mirena is not causing the chest/heart pains and and on-call doctor said he didn't think it was likely either but I read all the comments on here and also feel that I know my own body so I called the Dr today to have it removed. First appointment they could get for me was this Thursday but I did not want to wait so I called back 3 times to see if my Dr had any cancellations and third time was a charm because I go in tomorrow to get it removed. I just hope that is in the right place and is easy to remove! I will update. Also I printed out 15 of these 33 pages on here and am taking them with me tomorrow. I also reported my side effects to the FDA.
