Any one experience trouble breathing, fatigue, heart palpitations?

I’m so glad to read the account from a female GP!! Thank you! I have reported symptoms in the UK - yellow card site.
I’m also really keen to hear from Delete Menstrual on how you get on. I only really had mine in for mega periods

I had it for over two years and didn’t register the heart palpitations were caused by it until reading on forums about symptoms that medical professionals seem to deny. I had it taken out a month ago and have mild palpitations now. I really hope they go. I was also breathless. And I’m really fit - exercising nearly every day. In my mid-40s. I bled for 5 days after removal. Then had what I think is a period a week later that went on for about 10 days. My periods never stopped tho and in fact bled all the time and sporadically. Very stressful and no good for your sex Life. Definitely had anxiety and brain fog which everyone wanted to tell me was the menopause but I know it’s not. Had all my levels and heart checked out. For some people the Mirena is not good for others it’s a win!

I made an account to answer this question. I had my mirena inserted for several months now without problems. But recently, there were a few occasions where I felt a sudden rush of light-headedness and partial blackout to the point that my whole body fell forwards but I always caught myself before fainting. Then the heart palpitations and breathlessness started. I had about 10 episodes today where it felt like my heart was running on a threadmill. I've never had so many episodes in a day, it is getting worrying.
I've not gotten my mirena removed, but since Mirena was prescribed to regulate menstrual blood flow, I guess removing it might bring back the heavy periods.

I am so grateful to have found this!! I started having palpitations 6 months after having mirena inserted. I had it mainly for really heavy periods. I bled for about 6 weeks after insertion. Since then it’s been sporadic, much lighter but I feel I have a period all the time. Plus the palpitations are really disturbing. No health professional seems to think there’s a link and yet here are all these women saying so!! I feel empowered to get it removed. My sister had a similar experience but had scarring and ended up having an operation to remove a fibroid that had migrated through her cervix. I think any concerns, just remove it.

Got Mirena put in February and have been having migraines and heart palpitations. Like many others have said, doctors don’t think it is mirena. But I’m going to get it out to see. Ahhh so hard. I have endometriosis and adenomyosis so need to stop bleeding, but these headaches and palpitations are not fun. So hard to know what to do.

Hello I just made an account in the hopes of helping someone. like some of yours comments have helped me. I had severe anemia so I decided to get the iud to stop my periods. About a year in I started getting hart palpications. Very scary. Plus major brain fog I would get so bloated it hurt. As well as major anxiety. Finally I told the doctor I wanted it out. 2 days later still hart palpications. Started taking vitamin c and magnesium. 4 days go buy completely gone. No more hart palpications I feel 100 percent better if you have any questions about it remove it don't let the doctors talk you out of it you no your body better then anyone I hope this helps someone. Who is trying to figure out what is wrong.

I had a Mirena for 6 weeks, two years ago and ever since I have panic attacks, palpitations, extreme anxiety (especially after eating or drinking). I will begin to feel normal for a while then something stressful will happen and my forearm will hurt like hell, followed by a panic attack and then palpitations. As it fades I will have buzzing through my whole body for days. It has been two years! I was doing good last year then a flu shot brought it back, the. The actual flu brought it on x1000. Be careful what you put in your body! I wish I had read more in the beginning.

I had the Mirena in for a year to help with severely heavy cycles. It did calm the cycles but I had it removed as started getting palpitations and heart flutters. Two days after removal I haemorrhaged and ent to A and E. They have me tranxemic acid to stop the bleeding and said it was a withdrawal bleed. Strange as the Mirena is supposed to thin the build up of the uterus but I lost 898 ml of blood with heavy clotting! Jump forward two weeks I still have breathlessness, fast pulse and fatigue. Clearly hormonal after a year of artificial progesterone. But no answers my BP is fine, EKG showed an ectopic heartbeat but because I am breathless doctor ordered a chest x Ray. So awaiting results. I am using magnesium spray and praying I get a regular period soon and my body can go back to being able to walk, run after the kids etc without this fear of what’s wrong with my heart! I will definitely message and complain about the Mirena as I think it’s quite damaging and dangerous to woman despite being hailed as the cure for anything!

I had Mirena fitted in October 2019. By the end of December I was having regular palpitations . Saw GP in feb because I was feeling lightheaded with them . Also always feeling tired and no libido plus spots and weight gain . I had it removed yesterday and hoping these will pass. Also have blood tests and ECG booked for next week. Will update soon .

I just had my Mirena removed because of reading these comments, I too have been having heart palpitations and dizziness. Please can anyone tell me how long before I should start feeling better. I had blood work done and wore a halter monitor and everything came back normal... my doctor doesn’t seem to believe the Mirena could be the issue:

Hello! I’m writing because I have experienced. Light headed ness, dizziness, panic attacks, severe anxiety, and depression, racing heart, chest tightness, and numbness in my arms. You name it ive had. Most days I feel like I’m dying. I got my mirena removed yesterday because after a year of dealing with all this. I just can’t. I was wondering how long after removal till the symptoms go away!

I have been experiencing chronic chest pain, shortness of breath, and generally feeling like I’m having heart attacks on many irregular occasions. Had heart, lungs and bloods checked, nothing ... just sent away with apparently Anxiety... I’ve never had this before and understand that the body also changes there was no referring to this by drs. Wasn’t till googling the two that I put the connection together as to when I was feeling this. Bayer has a lot to answer for .. beware ... I wouldn’t be surprised if drs get a kick back from getting people to have the mirena implanted. I felt completely fine in my head no depression or feelings of doom just the chronic chest pain. When I told my dr I wanted it out she still tried to convince me not to ... I just hope that now it is our this is the answer to what I have been dealing with for the last two years.
