I had the essure procedure done in the Dr office on October 21st 2014. It was so painful, I had to fight back the tears. I had two kids without any kind of pain meds and this procedure hurt like hell! From the moment the left could was placed, I was having extreme pain and cramping. I went home and did both mg but lay around for 2 days. The cramping and bleeding got worse. I called the Dr and after an exam he put me on antibiotics due to infection. He ordered an ultrasound for later that day. The ultra sound tech couldn’t locate my left coil, so an xray was ordered. The Dr called and said the left coil seems to be in place, but my body is rejecting it. After two trips to the emergency room in two weeks, I got an appointment with my Dr. He has agreed to remove the coils. My surgery date is Monday November 10th. I only had the device in for two weeks, but it has been two weeks of hell! The cramping, bleeding, clots, lower back pain, sharp pains in my pelvic area, nausea, insomnia, gained 10 pounds in 2 weeks! Essure was supposed to be a quick fix, but turned out to be nothing but pain. It has stopped my life. My kids no longer have a fun mom who can play with them.
