I wish that I saw this site earlier before I got the Mirena, but alas I didnt and I am glad I found it now because of the issues Im having now I know Im not imagining it.
So last week I got the Mirena, Im still breast feeding and 9 weeks post partum. I wanted the Mirena because birth control does not agree with me, well dr. who I trust completely tells me that the hormone is so local and small that I will not feel it since hormone treatments were something I DID NOT want to do...so I went with it...fast forward to today, 3 days after it was inserted I woke up anxious, moody and dizzy...now I have a history of anxiety attacks but they have been under control for a year now, so Im like what is the issue here...then I become severely dizzy even sitting didnt help...same thing till today..my nervousness is at a high, Im starting to feel disconnect from my baby and it almost seems as if this has spun me into a depression...and to think a week ago everything in my life was beautiful and happy...now I cant even go for a walk with my children because Im too dizzy I feel like I am going to faint!!!

Talked to my dr's asst. today and she said Im super sensitive the the prgesterone and that they should have checked my history with anxiety before suggestiing this iud. She is great I only wish I talked to her about getting it first...but anyway she also said my body is asjusting and it will get better...I told her that my sanity is worth more than time waiting to get better and they whole reason I got this was because I was sworn to that the hormone I wouldnt even notice...well dizzy spells, anxiety, nervousness out of body cloudiness later I am pissed I wasnt told before hand that 5% of women expierence what I do....I dont care that it is 5% they should tell every women those statistics!!! I am getting mine out...I cant be in a fog with a newborn and 3 year old at home...I was too happy to go into another Depression and Im not going to wait till it gets better as she said to me...she did also say however that I am in contril and if I wanted it out now she would take it out no problem....she is calling tommorow to check on me and I will be getting it out...Im not going to give it a trial run, especially if Im seeing these side effects just one week into it....

Anyone else see any side effects so soon???
