just do share brazilian experience...

3 days without Mirena!!!! What a relief!!! I’m not 100%, but much better now.
The removal was ok, a minor and very fast cramp and my period started this morning.
I’ve been suffering for 4 months! I couldn’t work well, I was afraid of going out for the fear of fainting in the streets.
My symptoms were:
Weakness and numbness of the right side of my body (eye including)
Dry sensation in the right eye
Very strong muscular spasm diagnosed as cervical bulging disc
headache on the base of skull and the right side of my forehead and eye
Other minor joint problems (hip, ankle)
Hypoglycemia
eczema
Very low energy
Depression
Dizziness
Difficulty in thinking, talking, concentrating
Thanks for a doctor friend of mine, thanks for this site and for the site from Loyola University (http://www.luhs.org/HEALTH/kbase/htm/mdx-/qudr/5106/mdx-qudr5106.htm), I could show to my gynecologists that Mirena wasn’t that harmful as they insisted to tell me. I too had resistance to accept that for the convenience of no periods, no cramps and so on. Only 6 months after the insertion of Mirena I started with all the bad stuff! Apparently, for the doctors and even for me, all the symptoms I had weren’t related to Mirena but now I can see the tragedy of this method!
I would appreciate a suggestion of a cleansing diet to enhance my recovery. I also suggest yoga (restorative postures) and meditation that have been helping me a lot!
Thanks for all!!!
