I have 3 Handsome boys. I always new I only wanted to have 3 kids. After my third son was born, I was put on the Miena IUD for 5 years which worked great! When my 5 years was up, I knew I wanted a permanent form of birth control. My doctor strongly recommended the new Essure procedure. She gave me pamphlets on it and praised it incredibly. She went on to tell me how it was done in the office and it was completely safe and my it would only cost me my insurance copay! Wow! Who could pass this up? Not only is my doctor recommending this, it would probably be the cheapest route to go! I did the procedure in April 2014. A few short months after is when all the symptoms started. I am now scheduled to have a total hysterectomy in December 2014. By the way, did I mention that I am only 28 years old? Something to think about…
