Update: I had the mirena removed last Wednesday, July ? anyway, since then I've had 1 bout of diahrrea/loose stool. I saw a GI guy yesterday and he's started the "test taking process". What was interesting to me was my blood pressure, which I found elevated last week is now down 116/64 versus 125/83). I'm still worried but it helps when you're system feels a little better. I'm so glad that I removed the Mirena
