In 2010 I got pregnant with my third child and I knew I did not want anymore I spoke with my doctor about tubal ligation which became the plan from day 1. 6 weeks after delivery at my wellness visit he stated they no longer do the tubal ligation the way they used too, they now do Essure he have me a pamphlet to read about it I looked online at the time no complaints reported that I found so all seemed well to do it. I had them places and had the ultrasound confirming they were properly in place without complications. About 6 weeks or so after that I had a 6 week period I saw my dr he sent me for an ultrasound where fibroids were found no other concerns since then I have persistent nausea, lower left abdominal ( intense pain ) with bloating feeling, I have never had health issues and rhe past year I get headaches almost daily and more recently I have been getting dizzy spells. I started thinking about the timing and thought maybe it’s the Essure, after reading the stories posted I’m horrified! I see my doctor in a few weeks to discuss the Essure that he felt was perfectly safe.
