Mirena and next morning

This is a horrifying method of birth control! I had mine put in on 8/18 and it was AWFUL! The worst pain I have ever had in my life! After the doctor "forced" it in, I was apologized to and told that since I have never had a vaginal birth that there were suppose to give me something to soften my cervix. Well...needless to say it was not soft and it was thick and hard! So you can only imagine what my friend heard in the waiting area and how shocked she was to hear me scream to the top of my lungs. How embarrassing that was for me. I cramped I was bleeding I was miserable!!! I didn't sleep that night because I was cramping so bad. The next day around 5:30 that afternoon I lost it. I started crying and could not stop. All I could tell my husband is that I wanted it out! It made me emotional, depressed and confused all within 24 hrs. Oh...plus they left me on my birth control pills and told me to finish those out then stop taking them. You can only imagine what hormones were going on in my body. By the end of the night my husband told me to call immediately the next morning and have it removed. I called the dr. office told them I wanted it out and had it removed. Within an hour or two I felt so much better and improved daily. Two days later I started bleeding and it has lasted about 5 days. All I can say is DO NOT DO IT!!!! I am on the pill and will stay that way until my husband decides to have a vesectomy..

My son was born March 2007, when he was 8wks old, to much of my surprise I found out that I was pregnant again. Mirena sounded perfect!!!! I had it placed 7 weeks after my 2nd son was born in Jan 2008. I had what I still assume is normal with any type of birth control method, irregular bleeding,cramping,some slight mood swings. That all seems normal to me when you mess with you body like that. Aug 1, 2008 I woke up at4am with awful abdominal pain sooo bad that I turned to my husband and said that I think I have to go to the hospital. I decided that if I could fall back asleep then its probably nothing major. I fell back asleep (or passed out, I don't know) The next morning I was hurting so bad I couldn't lift anything, couldn't stand up straight, felt weak and felt as though I had rocks in my stomach but had an empty feeling at the same time. The pain was all over my abdomen, stabbing, shooting,pinching. I also had pain aroung my belly button and a noticeable discomfort about my pevic bone. Finally I called my husband to come home, went to the hospital, they took blood, cultures, did an exam and did a ctscan. All normal! WHAT!! Aug 11th still having pain and now having MAJOR HOT FLASHES. I find myself getting so hot and irritated that I cant be around the babies because I am afraid I will yell at them. If I get in a little disagreement with my husband it will most likely end with me saying I want a divorce (I noticed another lady with that same problem) Today I had a ultra sound done and it came back what my (new) doctor says is normal. The problem with that is that one of my ovaries is split and is NOW shaped like a horse-shoe. I was pregnant for almost 2yrs straight and had lots of ultrasounds NOT ONE TIME did anyone say anything about a odd ovary. I'm just going to make a educated guess that it wasn't deformed till after the Mirena. Now I am wanting to remove it but feel like I should get every test known to man first to rule out any other possibility. I really don't want to remove it. I am afraid of getting it removed and even more of getting pregnant when I already have two 10 months apart and still in diapers.
My biggest question is wanting to know if hot flashes are related or if I might be having something else going on. Am I the only one with he hot flashes? I have them all day long!!!!!!!!
Also I noticed after reading other post that some other things may be related like, piercing headaches, itchy flaky oily scalp, weight gain, ear drainage, lower back pain, oily skin, increased smoking, in-grown hairs in inner thigh area, joint pain, fatigue, decrease sex drive.

I had the mirena inserted on july 11th, 2008 the insertion itself I didn't feel was too bad. A lot of cramping during and for the rest of that day. I got up that next morning and haven't had any pain since then. I did go back a week later just for an ultrasound to make sure it was exactly where it need to be. I stopped spotting about a week ago and feel great! My doctor had explained to me that if I wasn't feeling 110% after the 3 month mark that he would take it out. He had explained to me that no one should have side effects, bleeding or spotting after the first 3 months. So feel maybe everyone just different. Mirena would effect each person in a different way.
