I had my mirena removed 5 days ago, after a number of things starting going horribly wrong. I had it for a total of 3 years, since I was 18. I have no children. I chose this form of contraception after tiring different pill options which didn't suit.
Weekly painful cramping, feeling absolutely tired zero energy, and no libido. More recently - this year I started experiencing serious chest pain. It was so bad one day that I went to the doctor and had an ECG scan - they found nothing. It feels like my heart is literally going to explode.
What's worse is the doctors don't want to hear it! I get this pain at least once a day now - bending over, reaching up high, laughing, breathing too deeply these things will start it up, and it is horrible. Nowhere can I find chest pain (or similar) listed on any mirena related websites. I am considering writing to Bayer, the manufacturers of this careless drug. Whether or not they will care is an entirelying different story, but people deserve to be more informed!!!
