I am now 37 yrs old. I had esure implanted the week after I buried my kids dad in August 2014. I had the appt set up months before due to having ehlers danlos syndrome coupled with multiple hernia repairs that have left me with mesh over my entire abdomen. I have a son and a daughter. I do not want to physically be pregnant ever again. I thought my side effects were the fog and depression of my best friend dying unexpectedly, feeling alone to take care of final arrangements as well as estate, and kids wellbeing. The kids were 16 and 11 at the time. It has been over a year. My mind and soul are doing better. My body is not. I feel like my thermostat is broken, I get so hot or so cold, and there is no comfort. I have days at a time where I am exhausted and can not rest enough even though I take vitamins, exercise, and eat a lean healthy diet. There are times where it feels like some one is giving my tunes an Indian burn. I’m allergic to nickel, would have been nice to know. I never use to get sick. Seems I am all the time now. I’m the only parent left. Is this going to kill me. I had children before I knew of my genetic condition. There’s a 50 chance they have what I have. I just wanted to make sure I didn’t possibly give this terrible disorder to any more kids. The obgyn that performed this procedure tried to talk me into an iud. I knew of worse stories from ftiends. I told her I was totally up for having my tunes cut and she refused. I hope this keeps others from this procedure. For whatever reason you have, it is your body, we should get to choose, we should be informed!
