hi, i welcome u too. i know exactly what ur feeling. i also, started to feel the same way u did about 4 mo ago. i had my mirena removed on dec 17 10...it's been 2 mo since removal n i feel a lil better, not quite tho... what i'm going through rite now, is the post mirena side effects. these side effects are not fun at all.. they are days when i feel good n there days when i feel like i'm not going to make it another day. the feeling is very scary. hopefully ur body responds to the removal better than me. the first step is to remove this horrible iud... if u need some one to talk to u can always email me private.. i can relate to u because im also ur age... n i feel just like u.. also, they're amazing woman on here that are more than willing to help u.. we are all in this together... take care
