what can I do to have it Removed? I had it done in 2008 after I lost my baby. The Doctor told me that this would be the best thing for me. He was sooooo wrong im in pain all the time now.
i had the procedure less than a yr.ago and have aches and pains eversince. My body itches like crazy.i have dry spots that are spreading…is this caused by nickel allergy
I had the procedure done 4 years ago and started with small problems. I have pain in the left side and painful intercourse. Now my muscles ach and my legs are having circulation problems. I have had three kids with no pain meds and now my monthly cramps are worse than child birth. I am very not happy with how glossed over the doctors make this procedure seem.
My name is Sherry. I had essure put in June 2006. The Gyno said it was better than tying my tubes. I did not research this, but trusted her. I have had no problems until 3 months ago. I have constant pains on my left side. It feels as if someone is pulling and tugging on my ovaries and Fallopian tube. Its like they are twisting it? I have constant discomfort and spasms up and down my thigh (left area) and pain pulsates on the left pelvic area. I am always taking pain pills, can not sleep and have been to 4 doctors. My gyno, whom is wacky. told me this is NOT reversable, that my coils are in place, (after a ultrasound) and that she can give me a Hystercomy?? No way i say! I proceeded to have a CT scan to rule out terrible thoughts of cancer etc. needless to say, I have always been worried it might be my essure. I even went to a Holistic medicine man, and I did NOT tell him my problem. he guessed it with Kinentic ebergy. he told me I have BLOCKAGE in my fallopian tubes and i NEED to get whatever is in ther out as it will give me CANCER. I fillped as he also diagnosed me with 2 toher personal problmes that I told no one! therefore, I made an appt to get these removed ASAP in Chapel Hill at the reversal center. My insurcance paid $12000 to have these put in, and not they will not pay to have these removed. I hve to pay $7100 to get these removed. I am DESPERATE due to the pain that I already pre-paid, book my surgery in feb 2012, and have to take 1 month paid vaction so recover form this…anyone else out there have these horrble pains like me? It feels like pulling and tugging, spasms and like something is turning insde of me? No Stoach pains, but I do have Abdonimal pains too. Also does anyoe know of a lawsuit against ESSURE we can join? If so please, PLEASE contact me…My private email is UALSHERRY@AOL.com…if you have questions, I am happy to help. I feel miserable!!
I am gratefult I will be getting these out. I am 46yrs old, finally met my lifelong soulmate, he wants Children, and now I can only assume this is a act of GOD telling me to get these out, reverse my porcedure and get pregnant!
Thank you all,
Sherry
out of curiosity do you constantly bleed. i do and also always in pain terrible pain.
Sorry for the typs earlier, I am a Flight Attendant and I am tired…and still in constant pain!!
I got the essure procedure done in May of 2009, and at first I thought it was the best thing ever…but now I’m having crazy pains on my left side and shooting pains in my thighs. My usually predictable 3 day period has change to 5 if I’m lucky! I want these things OUT!
I had Essure put inon Dec 14 2011 my doctor said it was a safe procedure so I believed her she. Now I’m in so much pain I cant take it. The pain is on my left side and it shoots down to my anckle also my back is in pain. The doctor said she would get it out had the appoinment ready and everything calls me the day before my pre op and tells me that my insurance is not covering it with her office and that I have to go somewhere else Im so tired of this pain.
I got the essure done december 15, 2011 and the pain in my back, right side, and right leg period is driving me crazy and I told my ob and he just said ok!! I want to get some done about it but I scared!!

Is there anyone in the uk suffering from the symptoms previously mentioned, I had the essure procedure in 2008, from the beginning it didn’t appear right, niggling pain in the left side of my pelvis, which slowly developed into Sharp pains, lengthy periods and heavy bleeding,tingling sensations in arms and legs ,achey joints all over, had several tests ,all negative or inconclusive, just been given the go ahead for a Hysterectomy, to remov,e the coils , but the reason they are giving is because of the heavy periods not the coils? Can’t come soon enough
Wow. I had the essure coils inserted in 2009. After the surgery I felt like I was in labor for 3 hours afterwards. I didn’t expect that kind of pain, but I was relieved when the pain went away. 3 months later I had the test to make sure the coils were in place and they were. Also, my periods were heavier and painful, but Midol really helped. About 6 months after the insertion I started having intermittent mild pain in my left lower abdomin, which increasingly got worse. Intercourse was sometimes painful and I always spotted a little. My libido decreased and I felt like I was not going forwards enjoying my husband, but the essure actually hindered out sex life – not helped. I would have had a laproscopy done instead of the essure if I would have known. I feel like we are all guinea pigs. I plan to be an advocate against the manufacturer of essure (conceptus). I recently was admitted to the ER with severe pain in my left lower abdomin. Test results showed both coils came out and dislodged into my uterus puncturing the top portion and bottom portion of my uterus on the left side. That explains the pain, but again it is intermitten. I am supposed to have surgery to have them out (but most likely I will have to have a partial hysterectomy). I have requested my medical records from the hospital and I will request them from my doctor as well. I am also requesting that I be allowed to keep the coils when they do my surgery – as I plan to retain a good malpractice/personal injury attorney in NYC. The FDA should force a re-call – how many women must suffer? I will keep you posted on my surgery. If anyone would like to contact me, my e-mail is: crydlite007@gmail.com.
