I had my essure placed April 2011, after my daughter was born on Feb. 24, 2011. My doctor gave me no other choice for permanent birth control but essure. I have had nothing but problems since the procedure. I had an unusual rash on my hands, legs and face that no doctor I seen could explain but give me antiobiotics. I have missed a lot of work due to stomach cramps, diahhrea, bloating, bleeding out of the ordinary. My digestive system has been a mess along with severe weight loss. I am worried that my kidneys are not good and I am without health coverage at this time. I have five children and no energy since the procedure to do the things I normally would be able to do. Depression has been an issue and I would like the implants out if I have a chance to be my self again.
