I had Mirena in for a little bit over 3 weeks and had it removed. I started noticing heart palpitations (skipped beats, racing heart, fluttering) and chest pain. I also started getting short of breath over nothing. Just a few steps and i was breathing hard and felt so tired. Since having it removed (2 days ago) i havent had palpitations, the chest pain doesnt feel to bad anymore, but i still feel very tired and sleepy all the time along witht he short of breath. Was wondering if anyone else felt like this with Mirena. Also, I have been bleeding for 11 days now, and since I had it removed its been heavier... normal?
I already went to my regular doctor and they did blood work, im wearing a hedart monitor for a few days, and I also had an ultrasound of my heart done. Need to wait for the results but in the mean time Im worrying about these symptoms.
Other symptoms i had while on Mirena: irritability, depression, anxiety, panic attacks, brain fog.

Aldorado, if your having these kind of probs with heart skips, you MUST have that checked. 'done is notorious for having bad effects on the heart. This question was due to birth control. Totally different causes. Please go to the "drugs A to Z" at the top of the page and read up on the professional site for methadone. Please be safe and have your heart checked. There's a member here (very young) who spent 9 days in the hospital because of heart related issues when she was on 'done. Nothing to mess around with. Please be safe.

what do you mean "done? what is it? I did a research on google. It says if you are healthy individual and heaving these problem stop drinking cofee, smoking, and so on. And I noticed I have it when I smoke too much. Kind feel alittle heavy on a heart. I am done with meth. So my next step is cigs and weed. I think a mix of them does it too my heart especialy when I used to drink alots of cofee. But I know I have to get my heart checked. Once I went to my meth doc, he listened to my heartbeat, he said its fine, but I didnt feel interaptions at that time. So I think most likely its due to smoking. Cigs are heart breakers!
I kind of had chest pain before. Especialy when it started and I drank ALOTS of coffee at work, weed, cigs.
Plus cigs in Canada are so much more heavier on nicotine an tar. Like twice heavier then American cigs or Europian
By the way it started when I did amphetamine for three days in a row without any sleep. And had sex on it. So just saying was so stupid when I was younger
Sorry. In the states some call Methadone, 'done. As to not confuse Meth with Methamphetamine. Just a short version. And it can cause problems. I will ask "youneverknow" to respond. She's the one who ended up in the hospital with this side effect that was directly related to the 'done.
click on "find a member" and type in "youneverknow" her story is on her profile page. please read it
I will. But I am done with meth told ya:)
That's great news Aldorado! I'm pulling for you and really hope you do well. Take care and keep that great attitude going. It will get you far!
