hello all, tomorrow I am having my mirena coil out, I had it put in to help with spd and regulate my bleeding, however I can not control my mood swings I'm either crying or hysterical. I was watching this morning yesterday and flava were on doing their dance routine and i couldn't stop bawling. Don't know why I'm just emotional . Anyway i had the coil put in with general anaesthetic as i nearly passed out when they first tried, was wondering if anyone has had one taken out and how painful is it going to be because i really don't think I am going to sleep tonight

Awww hun as i said it's not an area i've had experience of but good luck for tomorrow and i hope it's not too bad.... might be worth asking if they have gas and air handy just in case?

My experience is some what different. Firstly I dont, and didnt have SPD and secondly, my coil rejected rather than being taken out. I had mine fitted, and after the worst pain ever in my life at the time I was rushed back to the doctors only to find my uterus was contracting to remove the coil. The doctors took it out, but I felt nothing. Im not sure if thats because I was in so much pain, or if it just didnt hurt. I didnt feel a thing when it was fitted. I hope it all goes well. As Tsena said, maybe request some pain relief to hand just in case.
