I am currently recovering from having the essure product removed from my ripped fallopian tube. I began having problems about a year ago starting with dizziness and nausea that would re-occur on a daily basis. About 6 months after these symptoms began I started having pain in my right side. After many tests and scans with no results I had exploratory surgery. While exploring the doctor found that one of my essure coils had broken through the fallopian tube and was basically injuring my uterus over and over again. While this product was malfunctioning it was causing severe pelvic infections as well as cysts. Since this ordeal began about a year ago I have become very weak, tired and unable to perform many of the activities that I am typically able to do with no problem. Now that the offender is out I am hoping to recover my strength and try to be a productive human being again. I would never recommend this product to anyone and believe that the FDA should have never approved it.
