I wasnt given a choice. I was just told that Essure is the procedure they do now. I was worried about coils inside me but I figured it beat being cut and having scars.
I was wrong! I’ve had 2 yrs of hell. I guess the doctors dont want to admit they are doing a procedure that os messing people up because ive been told i might have restless leg, nail fungus, dry skin, yeast infection due to something im using new!, heavy bleeding & headaches will stop if i dont use chocolate or sodas, use iron pills, & i should use advil often. The last two contridict each other when you are dealing with low hemoglobin.
This is craxy! No medications or suggestions work and no one will remove my coils. They send me home and schedule me to come back every three months. Im starting think think im gonna die before they figure out essure is killing me.
I have:
Poor circulation which makes my feet swell and legs cramp
My toe nails are yellow and some have fell off
My skin is itchy so bad i cant sleep
I have the heaviest period in the world now, so nad i use a pad, a tampon, & depends and have to change all 3 every 1 to 2 hrs
I get a yeast infection atleast once a month
I bleed during sex
I have brown blood come put bout once a month and i dont know where its from. Hope i dont have internal bleeding!
My periods are always early or late and never on time
I have a headache so bad i cant concentrate on my work or studying
I am 175 pounds and have never been near this big
My hair falls out bad. Every drain in the house is full of it. Its so thin i have contacted transplant doctors
Bloating is an every day thing. Im starting to get use to it
Craps. I feel lik im on my period when im not
Pain. Lower abdomen. Lik contractions kindof. Makes me drop to the floor! Happened a few times
Like i said… doctors have been unable to fix my problems and NONE OF THEM EXISTED BEFORE MY ESSURE PROCEDURE!!!
I use to be a 120lb fun mom and now im miserable just because i want permenant birth control. Dont do it! You are better off having 20 more kids!!!
