I wanted to let everyone know, I wasnt away of the side effects of the Essure. I have not seen a doctor for the symptons I’ve had. To let you all know, I had this surgery performed while I was in the Military.. The first thing that shoock me up, my doctor told me, ‘One of the coils is stuck in your uterus, I was unable to pull it out.’ How is this possible?? I have pain at times, it almost knocks me off my feet. When I use the bathroom, my lower abdominal area is in so much pain, I don’t want to use the bathroom.
I have read so many other women’s stories and it is scary, I’m not sure if my situation will be as bad. I do know, when my cycle comes on, I feel a pain that is unbearable and I beleive it is where the coils are. My husband pointed the story out last nigh while watching the news. It’s a scary thought many women have had to get complete removal of the female organs. I am in the Atlanta area, and right now I am searching for the right OB to perform this procedure to get these coils out of me. I pray that everyone has a speedy recovery or is able to deal with the pain.
May God bless you all
