Thanks to all of you that have replied to my message. I had my Mirena out this past Tuesday. I got my period on that Thursday. My only complaint is my left leg is weak and tingles a little. The neurologist is "on the fence" with my diagnosis of MS. The blood work and my MRI don't really match up. The MRI shows a little, but not conclusive enough. The blood work is also very mildly elevated, but not enough to make a 100% positive diagnosis.
So here I am again...but starting to feel better and that maybe it is the Mirena after all. Who knows?
My alternative therapies (acupuncture and yoga) seem to be helping tremendously.
I'm supposed to have a 2nd opinion, but I'm afraid they are going to say "yep, you have it" because that is their specialty. I think they would tell a rock it had MS if it rolled into their office (ha ha).
I just keep a positive outlook and spirit and remind myself that I have to take each day at a time, and I will get better soon. 4 months is what I am expecting for the Mirena symptoms to dissipate.
Please keep me in your prayers, as I need all of the prayers anyone is willing to offer!
Thank you.
