I dont know who to ask.... Pain

Did you get it removed?? I got severely depressed and researched how to take it out myself. And I did!

I had it taken out after a week. Then had an ablation which worked wonderfully.

I should have got it taken out a lot earlier but they told me the pain was not there. So I just convinced myself I was insane and the pain and issues were nothing to do with the mirena.

I am very similar with pain beyondtherainbow that's why I didn't want to go to the hospital alone. But no one would take me or come with me despite my pleas. They never believed I was hurting that much. It makes me so sad I suffered. And sad for any other women out there who are not believed with pain issues.

Now to save up to get the legs seen. That hasn't got me screaming and this was the first day I woke up without my head screaming "I can't do this anymore" what a relief. Now I know my pain is real, I know the leg pain is real and that I will get it addressed. Makes it easier to deal with.

Thank you for your stories and support.

I'm sad you suffered too. I'm oddly grateful for my gyn issues because I had to learn to talk about pain with that. I still will lie about it if things happen too fast and I under-grade pain consistently (major ankle surgery and I admitted to severe pain once post op and that was when my nerve block broke; it caused problems in PT when I injured myself and they didn't see how bad it was because I underrated it). My therapist just gave me the talk because I didn't tell him or anyone that I was having the oral motor issues until someone noticed it because I didn't trust myself. It was just 4 days but he thought I should have said something immediately because it was concerning.

I will have to be careful when I go to the hospital Sunday because I will downplay the depression symptoms and wind up not admitted if I'm not careful. It's not an easy skill.

I hate that I had to learn this. I think it is the part of PTSD that makes me most angry.

I'm so glad you feel better!!!!! Conquer those legs!
