6 year post-mirena update
Just hit my 6 year post removal anniversary, and wanted to give an update on how I'm doing. I'm one of those who took a LONG time to heal. Longer than most. This last year has seen even more improvements for me. I'd say I'm at about 98% now. Most days I don't even think about my side effects or Mirena anymore.
I'm still doing the same things I mentioned in my 5 yr update

except I switched to natural dessicated thyroid instead of synthetic, take a B12 complex and a Magnezium-Zinc-Calcium supplement at bedtime, which I find helps me sleep.
Some mild symptoms that I still get occasionally are that anxiety feeling, twitching eyelid lasting many weeks (the twitch in my esophagus has stayed away now for awhile, thankfully), lack of energy some days, and just minor fleeting things.
Mostly they go away when I reduce stress, take a nap, or have a good night's sleep.
Looking back at where I was 6 years ago, I am thankful to be where I am now, and for all the support on this site.
Hang in there ladies, you WILL get better!
