3 months Post Mirena...Anxiety is horrible!
I'm new here and have tried to look through to find more posts about this, but I'm giving up and just posting.
I had my Mirena removed on January 11th, so I'm almost 4 months post. (I had it for about 3 years with not too many side effects other than no sex drive). I had a crash for a couple of weeks right after that consisted of headaches and nausea and general moodiness and blah feeling. It went away, I have had two periods since then. One super heavy and long. One lighter and more "normal" for me.
I thought I was in the clear...feeling pretty good physically.
But then I started having severe anxiety. I am worrying about things ALL.DAY.LONG. I rarely have a feeling of contentment or relaxation...I am always worrying. It is making me feel crazy. Is this related to that effing Mirena?
If so, when will it go away? I REALLY don't want to take medication for it because after Mirena, I am really leery of putting anything in my body for fear of what IT will do to me. But I can't live like this forever. What can I do to cope?
And where do I sign up to sue Mirena? I can't believe I put myself through all of this!
