Just had a baby 3 months ago..got the IUD put in 2 months ago, since then been Dx with high blood pressure and put on 2 different BP meds. I had been experiencing shortness of breath and irregular heart beat like feeling, went to the ER cause I felt like I was going to have a heart attack and they found nothing wrong with the blood tests, chest x ray or ekg, only found I had high blood pressure and suggested that I just had a panic attack. I followed up with my primary the next day and thats when he put me on the meds for hypertension. I have been taking them for a few days but they dont seem to be helping, its a low dose but I still feel the same. I feel like there is this dark cloud over me...like I can't enjoy life like I used ton I cry everyday, a couple times a day...this is where all my focus goes to..I have a beautiful 3 month old baby that's reaching milestones everyday and I hate that I can't enjoy it the way a mother should because I feel lost amd confused as to why my health has suddenly gone to crap. I'm 26yonnnand I've always been healthy. I really hope my problems are coming from this damn IUD. I have an appointment to get it removed tomorrow morning. Wish me luck please. Thank you to all the ladies who shared their experiences, I feel comfort that Im not alone and there is hope :)
