I had my second and last child in 2009. I told my Obgyn I wanted my tubes tied and she mentioned that I should try Essure because it was a quick easy procedure and I wouldn’t have to miss work. They scheduled the procedure as soon as I healed from my delivery.
As soon as 6 months after implantation I started getting pains on my left side. At first I thought it was a cyst because I could ‘feel’ something abmormal. I called my gyn and she scheduled another dye test to see if I was still blocked. Test showed i was still blocked.
I still complained to my doctor about my pain and she just said ‘maybe its your stomach? I looked at those xrays they took and those coils looked bent & crooked & poking out of my tubes.
If my gynecologist isn’t listening to me and my family doctor has no clue what Essure is then who will help me with this pain?
