Re: Fibromyalgia and use of the Merina IUD

Hello! Sooo I've been doing research to figure out what I have. I have all the symptoms of fibromyalgia and Arthritis they've even done bloodwork for lupus which I know I do not have. Growing up with my big sister that has Lupus, I know the symptoms, and have only the joint pain. So I had twin daughters 2 years ago and got the Mirena IUD inserted right after the c-section. I, from then have stop getting my period, now I've switched jobs where I'm standing all day, which is what I thought was causing these bad pains. I have been stressed out alot lately and get cold often, urinate alot and have TMJ. I get pains in my knees, hip bone, wrist, elbows, even my fingers. Yesterday I started getting pains in my lower back and neck. Now I am only 19 and do not consider this normal, the doctor said maybe its my lifestyle but before I had the IUD none of these things were happening. I'm now considering getting off the IUD for a while to see how my body reacts. Ohh... I've also had massive break-out in my face where it's now filled with big painful pimples, forgot to mention nausea and no feeling that I'm ever hungry. I have a lot going on and these pains make my day to day life very difficult. I work, go to school and have twins to care for. Please let me know what you think and how you are doing now? Tweet
