Hi my name is Angie and I’m 32 yrs old. I had the essure procedure done after I had my 2nd son. After the procedure was done and the pain meds wore off I was in MAJOR pain. Just wanted to curl up in a hole and die kind of pain. Let alone I was suppose to take meds before the procedure that was never called in nor was notified that I had to take prior meds. Its been 5yrs now and I have noticed many issues. I have weight gain, fatigue, depression (medicated for now), anxiety, migraines that last for days, rashes/allergic reactions, and body pain. Body pain as in hard to walk sometimes and with the issue of the hip area going out. My lower back just kills me and when on my monthly it is worse. I never had any of these issues till after the procedure. I didnt have menstrual cramps before the procedure either. I have had abdomal pains that put me in tears and can’t move. I’m done having children due to health complications during both pregnancies. I only got the essure procedure for 2 reasons: 1. Birth control and 2. Dr recommended not to get a hysterectomy due to my age.
