Ok. So, I got the darn thing out yesterday and I don't know if it is just the psychological relief of getting it out, but I came home from my appointment and I felt great. I took down my Christmas decorations, something that I have needed to do for weeks, but didn't have the energy to do.
Then this morning, I popped out of bed and was singing and chipper with my kids. Usually I am grumpy with my daughter because she gets up super early and when I had the Mirena, I was just too tired to get up when she did. Before the Mirena, I was a total morning person...mornings were my favorite part of the day.
Anyway, I fully expect to experience the dreaded "Mirena Crash" or have my side effects return. I am still having some of my side effects, but it is nice to have a little energy for once.
Now, about the reflexologist. I went this afternoon and I don't know if it really helped or not. I have been feeling pretty good all day and feel good right now too. Usually I crash around 1:00 in the afternoon and that didn't happen. I don't know what is making me feel so good right now. I'm just glad that I am. I was told that the reflexology needs to be done a handful of times to be really effective. I'll see how I feel and I may go back again.
I thought that I would mention too that I was reading a lot of posts on another message board last night and many people there were saying that they have had great success with acupuncture. They said that the only drawback is that it tends to be expensive and you have to have it done several times.
