Re: mirena symptoms

Hi, meat27 is right, I did think I had MS when I was experiencing my worst side effects. It was awful. I was constantly reading everything on the net about MS and I was convinced I had it. I think the combination of extreme anxiety and no doctors acknowledging that my symptoms were from Mirena led me to this point. I know how scary it is, but my MS-like symptoms did eventually go away. I had numbness, vision problems and weird, electrical sensations in my left foot & leg. The day before removal the left side of my face went numb. I'm not sure where you are in the process - pre or post removal? - but it really does just take time. You have to push those negative thoughts out of your head and keep telling yourself that other Mirena users were in the same shoes and they're better now. I hope you get better soon. Take care and keep us posted.
