I had the Essure procedure in 2009. I have been suffering from sever migraine, back aches, hand numbness, lower than usual moods and depression. My periods can be so heavy that I soak through a tampon and pad within an hour. I have also just not felt normal, as far as my uterus. I have a difficult time putting into words, the ache, odd abnormal uncomfortable feeling in my uterus. I am a 37 year old, physically fit woman, US Navy veteran, with two children. I have changed my diet, varying from Vegan and back to some animal based foods, because of the painful stomach gas, and overall feeling of being not myself. Sometimes the bloat in my stomach is so painful, I can barely find a way to do activities. I suppose the best way to describe it, is that I actually feel pregnant at times, because of the sensations I’m my uterus. My sex drive has diminished. Up until reading the many stories of other women, I thought that because I was getting older, these symptoms were apart if the aging process. I am going to make an appointment right away.
