About 2 years ago I had the essure procedure. Everything was good for awhile, then I started with stomach pain and cramping. I also had bowel issues. I would have to go to the bathroom several times a day, very unusual for me, and then couldn’t go for days, also unusual. I went to my primary care doctor for a physical and discussed my issues. He drew blood and everything came back normal. I wrote it off to be stressed related. About six months ago I started with headaches, backaches, & nausea. It wasnt on a daily basis so I didn’t think anything of it until everything came out on Facebook and the news. I have a appt with my GYN this month , who is not the doctor who did the procedure. I am hoping for answers and good news. I almost hope this is all in my head. Headaches are getting worse and I have symptoms everyday now. Thank you for letting me tell my story. I was beginning to think I was crazy.
