I'm very sorry for what happened to you. I know how you feel.
~~ UPDATE TO MY STORY ~~
Turns out that I was pregnant. I only made it 4 weeks though. When it came time for the egg to implant, Mirena decided to do its job and my uterine wall was too slimy for the egg to stick. My body is still reacting to the hormone issues. My hair dye is not cooperating with me, and the last time I checked (2 months ago) I was still lactating BUT the hormone test said that my prolactin level was within normal range for a non-pregnant woman. Still can't explain that crap. Its heart breaking because I really wanted that baby. Most people can't tell they're pregnant at 2 weeks, but I have hormonal issues and my psoriasis reacts to hcg and retreats... so yeah, when I noticed that my psoriasis was going away and I was feeling sick, I knew something was up. I had one blood test come back that hcg went up and there are only two ways for that to happen... get pregnant or go on the hcg diet. I wasn't on the diet.

I keep blaming myself. I keep wondering if on that first ER visit, when they asked me if I wanted them to remove the Mirena, if I would have said yes, would I still be pregnant. My friend says no because she bled something awful when she got hers removed and then had an unscheduled period. She says she thinks I would have miscarried anyway but I can't help but to wonder. I know 4 weeks isn't anything to most people but I spent 3 of those 4 weeks sick and I knew that I had a baby growing in me. I hate Mirena! But I'm stuck with it for now. OH and the ER docs said that I didn't need to worry about using back-up protection because you can't get pregnant with Mirena... WRONG!!!!! Guess I'll just have to play it safe... well, safer than being on the best birth controls there is!

I just know that if everything works out in the relationship department, I'm getting this stupid thing removed so that I can have that baby I want so bad.

If anything else comes up, I'll be sure to post about it. Thank you everyone for reading. If anyone else is going through this, please feel free to reply. It goes straight to my e-mail.View Thread
