Don't tell me about ESSURE

On June 29, 2016, I had my tubes removed in order to ensure that all the pieces of Essure was removed from my body.  This was my third procedure in three years to fix or remove Essure from my body.

On August 4, 2016, I had my follow-up with my GYN/Surgeon.  As we talked she told me how she still feels that Essure is a GREAT birth control and that out of the 100's she has placed in I was maybe one of three that she removed.  NOTE: SHE is not who placed my coils.

The entire time I nodded and smiled but inside I was screaming.

Why?

Since 2011, I have suffered.  Mood swings, swelling, migraines, bladder leakage, breakouts, rashes, muscle pain, weight gain and more.

I lost partial function of the right side of my body.  I have eye twitches.

Since June 29th, I have gone down TWO sizes in jeans WITHOUT exercise.  I lost 15 pound without monitoring my intake. I am not having daily migraines that can put me down although I do still have them.

I also had a panel test which proved I am highly allergic to Nickel, Cobalt and Gold.

I still have many other symptoms but I pray in time they go away.

DON'T let anyone you love get ESSURE!
