My name is Racheal I got the essure device cause I was told I would have to be cut open like a c section the day I went in for my tubal ligation and I was out for hours I went in at 8 in the morning and did not get to leave till after 5 in the after noon there was a lady that went in after me she got done before me when I woke up I knew right away something was wrong I felt this stabbing pain on my right side and they kept telling me it was fine that I was supposed to feel like that and just kept shoving pain meds in me I was bleeding horrible told me it would go away in a few days well it didn’t so when I went to my post op they said it was ok that it happens sometimes I was bleeding so bad I could feel the blood pouring out of my body and I could feel clots some was bigger then my fist I knew when they was coming and I had to get to the bathroom right away so I could pass them in the toilet I hated it I constantly was in pain and they said that it couldn’t be the cause of my problem and I got a rash all over my body that was so itchy and I knew it couldnt be anything I was my clothes with or clean my self with cause I had used those products for years well I’m allergic to nickel and they never told me it was in the product my hair started falling out in clumps they tested me for so much stuff and said everything was fine and that essure was not causing my issues I never had no problems like this till this device was placed so in june I decided to go to a different doctor cause the pain from the coils and the rash and itching I couldn’t take it no more he couldn’t believe they let me bleed 5 months without doing anything about it so he out me on birth control to try and stop the bleeding which I shouldn’t of been put on that when I had the procedure done to keep me from being pregnant I would of just tool the pill in the first place I was on it for 2 weeks and the bleeding would not stop so I had to have a hysterectomy my uterus was all swelled up from the device irritating my uterus from where it went partly into my uterus to far and that was what was causing me to bleed I had the device placed in January 2014 had a hysterectomy in june of 2014 this device needs to be off the market before it harms someone even worse then it did me and I’m only 28.
