I had the essure procedure done back in 2010. The actual procedure itself was not that bad. If only the years to follow were the same. After the procedure I kept feeling a sharp pain in my left side. When I asked the Doctor about it he said it could not be the essure coils because they were so small and there was no way I could feel them. How does he have any idea of what I can or cannot feel? Needless to say I have never gone back to him. Eventually the sharp pain became more frequent and lasted longer until the point now where it never goes away. It feels like someone is stabbing me in my abdomin. Not only do I have this constant pain but my abdomin always feels swollen and even hurts if I put any pressure on it. I have had numersous tests over the years and everything always comes back negative. It is sad when you hope that your tests will come back saying there is something wrong with you in order to explain the pain. I have talked to a surgeon who will take the coils out but it may result in a hysterectomy. Not that I really want a hysterectomy at 41 but I want my life back and I want to finally be pain free. No one should have to live like this.
