Hi I read your story and gave me relief I have had the mirena for 4 1 /2 years and have been suffering with severe anxiety and panic attacks which I never had before started 6 months after u got the mirena and are getting waiting worse to the point my local doctor diagnosed me with agoraphobia! Scary! I kept asking if it could possibly be a side effect of the mirena and kept getting told no swore I was going crazy. :( I am going in next week to get it removed and praying for a good outcome I'm excited to hopefully get back to my free spirited fun corcky me. Thanks for sharing your story.
