I'm in hell since I had it removed. Hell has only lasted 4 days so far, but I'm a working mother and have 2 boys. I've been bleeding like I've been shot for 3 days straight. I've ruined my bed, my clothes, my underwear, and just recently blead all over the chair that I sat in during a staff meeting with all my upper management. I didn't even know it was going on, I had a super + tampon in, and I stood up and blood ran down my legs. I was so depressed the whole time it's been in, which was a year. I'm on zoloft. I cry on a dime. I'm also taking anxiety medication to counteract the feelings of not being able to cope. No more birth control, my husband got the ol' snip a roo...that's why I had it removed. I'm so sad I did... I don't know if what I'm going through is normal, but I hurt. And I'm bleeding like crazy. take care of yourself & decide what you're going to do soon, but prepare yourself for the worst but hope for the best. xoxoxo your helpless sister :o(
