My name is Joccelyn, I am 31 years old and I had the essure procedure done a little over two years ago after my fourth child. I initially told my doctor that I wanted to have my tubes tied and he talked me into have the essure. I have regretted that decision ever since. I have been having multiple symptoms including, daily headaches with the occasional migraine, lower back and hip pain, nausea, fatigue, body aches, bloating and that is just some of my symptoms. I feel like I never feel good. I went back to my doctor one year after having the procedure and he didn’t think my symptoms were a result. I felt very frustrated and I felt like he thought I was stupid for thinking it could be from the procedure. I know my body and I want the essure removed. I went to a primary care physician two weeks ago to have a full physical to prove to myself it was the essure. All of my results came back normal so I knew I wanted it out. I was told last week that the only way to get the essure out was to get a hysterectomy. As soon as I received that news I felt hopeless. I have an appointment next week with a new gynecologist to see what she has to say about hysterectomies. If there is anyone who has information about doctors in AZ that perform the essure removal I would greatly appreciate an email from you. Thank you.
