I hate to tell you this but my joint pain has actually become worse since I had mirena removed. I had it out about 7 weeks ago now, yet I am still suffering pain in my ankles and fingers most days, sometimes so bad that it is difficult to hold a cup of coffee. I had alot of the nasty side effects from mirena - acne, weight gain, bloating, pain, headaches, etc. so I don't know if I am still experiencing this joint pain because I had such a bad reaction or if other people are also having ongoing pain in their joints. As much as I would like all these horrible side effects to go away TODAY, I realise that it will take time for the clinical hormones to be out of my system.
Good luck to you.....I hope your pain goes away quickly once you have the mirena removed!
