So it;s been one month since I had the MIRENA removed. All I know is the sleep I get at night since removal is PHENOMENAL!!! I feel more rested when I wake up in the morning. I have started to take prenatal vitamins to get my hair to grow and it has grown a little over a half of an inch which I am very pleased about. I do however have this lingering pain in my right side/hip area that is constant and very aggravating!! My mood hasn't improved at all I still feel miserable all the time and moody more than happy. I feel like I have a little more energy to do things during the day. I actually get out of the house on the weekends to just go out to stores to walk around. YES people still irritate me while in the stores but I try not to let it bother me as it did before. Hopefully in the days,weeks and months to come I feel a little better every day. :)
I am on my 3rd Mirena IUD in the last 10 years, the purpose of using Mirena was of course for Birth Control, this last year however I decided to look into all the aches and pains I have had over the years and found many women with the Mirena IUD have had a lot of the same problems I was experiencing. I have had EVERY blood test known to man to see if I had an under active thyroid, Rheumatoid Arthritis, Lupus,MS etc the list goes on and on. Come to find out the Mirena is the basis of a lot of women getting silicone poisoning. Yup that's right not just implants can cause silicone poisoning. When I give my list of symptoms to my doctors they look at my like I am crazy, they say someone 35 years old shouldn't be in this much pain.You shouldn't have the aches and pains you say you are having, the moodiness, not being able to tolerate people, having a horrible memory lately, etc. Trying to get any one of my doctors to give me a silicone toxicity blood test is like trying to pull teeth. One says they have never heard of the poisoning, the other says we don't have the lot number for the IUD that was removed , what does having a lot number have anything to do with getting a blood test?? Anyway I am determined to find a doctor who will actually not think I am " nuts" and seriously look into this toxicity. There are a lot of bloggers here online having so many of the same problems that I am having and there is little knowledge for us to get proper treatment. My IUD has been out for almost a week now and I got one of the best nights sleep ever Saturday night, which is amazing for me, I usually get up due to muscle spasms in my back,or restless legs but I was able to sleep solid until 7am !!!
