For the first time in 2 years I feel like I have control. I have had Essure for about 4 years. Since then I have gained 35pounds (sometimes 10lbs at a time within 2 days),had skin rashes and excessive scar tissue, cramps that wake me from a dead sleep, been diagnosed with PMDD, low vitamin D, fibroids and bursitis, I got to the point I couldn’t stand up straight and felt I had no choice but to quit my $70K job to find an easier one-the easier job has no insurance coverage. It never crossed my mind that any of this was Essure related until I saw a local news report. I am overwhelmed, angry and determined. I will have Essure removed- I am in control.
