I had essure put in in 2007 after my last son was born I was the first patient that my doctor had ever done this procedure on he made it sound so wonderful so I said okay I’ll get it done and from that day on my life was hell it hurt to have sex I was always tierd and threw up alot I always had headaches and felt dizzy I would get sharp shooting pains in my vagina and my belly button area. when I would have my menstrual cycle I would bleed very heavy with big black blood clots and my menstrual cycle is very painful I was in and out of the hospital nobody knew what was wrong with me I lost a lot of weight I knew it was the Essure but my doctor said no he never even texted me to see if I was allergic to the nickel titanium or copper so I suffered for years .then I move to Salt Lake City Utah was in the hospital couple times for the same thing pain nausea vomiting I was referred to a doctor and I told her I thought it was the Essure come to find out I was allergic to it but the sad part was I had to have my fallopian tubes removed to remove the Essure I have had the Essure removed .but it destroyed my life mentally and physically I have scars now in my stomach from when they had to remove my fallopian tubes I still get sharp pains in my belly button sometimes but like the doctor said its because I have a lot of scar tissue in the inside .I just feel bad for anybody who has had this done to them.and I never recommend it to anybody. anybody I know I tell them please do not get essure .I wish that there was some way that I could sue them for the pain and suffering that I went through all those years even though I do not have essure no more it destroyed my life and body I still have complications even though it’s been removed. so to all the other women like me that have suffered you are not alone I know how you feel and it’s a very scary and sad feeling. Take care everyone .. Sarah
