Definitely! Get that devil out of your system as soon as possible. I had the same experience along with many other serious side effects. Even if you are not convinced a 100% then it worth the risks to take it out and insert it again later than to spend the rest the of your life in pain and wondering if... But I am re ensuring you that after a lot of research on the topic whatever side effects you are experiencing, scans and x rays will not help. The Mirena has silicone which leaks into the blood cells and causes all the problems. Just keep in mind you need to be patient and wait several months to see a result and as some says (up to 2 years) for your system to recover completely . Keep the physios with the chiropractor to release any trapped nerves and in time you will feel the progress.

I had a number of those symptoms as well--pins and needles in hands/feet as well as an elevated heart rate (including, at the worst point, palpitations and a racing heartbeat that lasted for days, making it impossible to sleep) and elevated blood pressure. You will find MANY women on this forum with all of those issues. I didn't have back pain while on Mirena but I did get some killer pain in my lower back about six weeks after it was removed (this was the week before my second post-Mirena period, part of my "crash")--a PMS symptom I had never had before and haven't had again since.

A lot of people think that these issues are from the silicone, and that may be true in some cases, but all of these symptoms can result from hormonal imbalances, and I think that that was the case for me (my symptoms post-removal have followed predictable patterns that track my menstrual cycle—I've been using the fertility awareness method since the IUD came out, so I have a good idea of when I'm ovulating, etc). But even with some lingering issues that often happen in the week before my period (though this seems to be getting better each month!) it is SO SO SO much better than when I had the Mirena. I feel like a new person!! It is worth getting it out and trying to get your body back to a healthy hormonal balance. Our hormones affect everything in our bodies!

You won't know if Mirena is the cause of--or at least contributing to--your issues unless you have it removed. And if you have underlying hormonal issues that are causing heavy bleeding, etc, synthetic hormones will not fix those issues--at best they only temporarily cover them up, at worst they create new, and often much worse, problems. There are natural ways to improve your hormonal balance (e.g., eating a good diet with lots of veggies and healthy fats and cutting out certain kinds of vegetable oils, like corn and canola, as well as processed foods).
