I've had mirena in for 6 months and haven't felt 100% since. 2 months ago I started waking up with night sweats that lasted for 3 weeks straight. I went to the ER and they couldn't find any reason for it. Too young for menopause they said at 39. Four mornings ago I woke up with my heart racing and an irregular heartbeat. I called the paramedics and i was in atrial fibrillation! Lasted 12 hours!!! First time ever! I was admitted into the hospital. I've always had heart palps before my cycle and during stress but never has this happened before. They found nothing wrong with my heart, no damage, no disease. Then I remembered the mirena. It's a foreign object and it does have side effects. I'm going tomorrow to have it taken out. I'm glad i found this post. The cons outweigh the pros for this implant. I want my healthy life back. If this could be the cause of my discomfort, it's the first thing i'm doing to help it. Thanks for the posts girls!!
