I had the essure procedure done in April of this year. Three days after the procedure I was in so much pain I couldn’t move. The Dr assured that it wasn’t from the implants and it would go away. It is now July and I’m still in pain along with having gained 30 lbs and my abdomen is constantly swollen and tender. I’m constantly nauseous and vomit almost after every meal. No Dr will take them out and the insurance won’t approve a hysterectomy because I’m only 25. I’ve tried everything to make the syptoms go away but it’s to a point that’s it’s affecting my job because it hurts to stand for long periods of time and I’m a Phlebotomist so that’s required. I was recently diagnosed with having pelvic congestion syndrome and poly cystic ovarian syndrome but yet again the Dr swears its not from the implants!
