My daughter was born 3 weeks early (February 2016), so I did not have enough time to sign a concent for a tubal, and unfortunately my OB was out of town and did not do my c-section, so I did not get the tubal. My husband and I decided that we were ok with three kids and after having lost two other babies, we could not risk going through that pain again and that our family was complete. When my OB went to see me the day after I had my daughter (c-Section) I asked about getting a tubal, she asked if I wanted something permanent and I said yes. She said ok, we can now do the procedure in my office, an in an out kinda thing, like a regual papsmear and dont need weeks of recovery. I was like, that sounds awesome, becuase I had already taken so much time off of work. I always assumed it was a tubal, until the day of the procedure that I saw on the monitor that I was getting coils inserted. I was really out of it so was unable to question it and I never thought about researching the side effects or complications, because again I thought it was a tubal and I had already researched that. I was never told what procedure I was getting and what it consisted of. So I thought well, it’s been done now I can’t do anything about it. Well now it’s been 2 months since I got it, I have yet to go for the dye test, but already I suffer from daily major lower back pain, shooting pain down my legs and constant pelvic and lower abdominal pain, also loss of hair, major bloating and gas. I do suffer from migraines, so I can’t really say it’s because of the Essure, but i think it may be triggering them. Because I’m in so much back pain, my sex life has been really affected by it. I have an appointment to see my OB tomorrow 5/25/2016 and let her know about my symptoms and what options I have, if she’s willing to offer any. I could not wait until after the dye test to see her. I am really scared how this is going to affect me in the long run if my doctor does not hear me out and help me. Every day I’m just thinking and stressing over this procedure that should have been told to me in detail what it was about. This procedure should just not be an option for any woman and I regret with my whole heart getting it done. I’m really scared for what my future holds with these coils in my body. I pray for the help that I need for myself and my family
