I had the procedure done after the birth of my 3 child in 2006. The procedure was extremely painful. I had severe cramps for a year nonstop. I went to my Dr a few times and he kept wanting to do exploratory surgery because the essure couldn’t be causing it. I didn’t have insurance i had lost my job from missing to much work from the pain. So I couldn’t afford a surgery. After 2 years the pain was a little better but still hurt everyday. I was learning to deal with it. I still haven’t went back to the Dr. I recently finally was accepted for insurance. I have been dealing with everyday pain and 2 periods a month. I’m positive that the essure is the problem I had none of this before I had the procedure. I am scheduling an appt now for hopefully getting a hysterectomy. And praying that 7 years of pain will finally end. And I can be able to be more active and lose the weight. Its very hard to not be able to do everything with your children and even the little everyday things like cleaning. Maybe after the surgery to remove the essure device and everything it has damaged I can get my life back.
