Re: crazy...question for all??!

Hi,

How long have you had the Mirena out? I had the anxiety, feeling like I was going to die of any and every cancer there is. At one time I told my Dad I thought I had MS. This thing scrrews with your mind for sure. I also felt sooo old. I would look at 80 year olds and wonder how they could live so long and not feel like hell. I actually got all my pictures in order(a HUGE deal for me) because I had decided I needed to scrapbook my 4 year old's 1st year before I died. It's an awful feeling to think about your kids without you and that's all I did. I'm 41 days post mirena and I still have small bouts of anxiety with SOB but I don't feel like I'm dying anymore. I am dealing with a burning esophagous and pain in the LUQ. (All GI issues). I actually just got back from a new obgyn appt. He listened to evreything I said and didn't dispute one thing. It was very refreshing. I showed him my progesterone level as being a tenth of a point off of a post menopausal woman. He definitely agreed that I could be having symptoms because of this and that your body does stop producing progesterone while on bc pills. He doesn't dispute that this could happen with the MIrena too although it's not supposed to be systemic. I think you have a good chance of your anxiety, etc going away. I hope you have someone to support you through this. Please let me know when I can help. I look at this site at least a million times a day.
