Mirena gone

I had my Mirena removed 2 days ago. I was given it for endometriosis. The first month was great. I said it was the best $700. I had ever spent. I lost 5 pounds. I felt great. Then the second month things started happening. I had been working out for 3 months before I got the Mirena. I lost 11 pounds. The second month I had the Mirena I had gained that back plus another 10. I now weigh 175. I started retaining water, had panic attacks, had horrible headaches, I was so full all the time (despite never eating) that I either threw up or had sever indigestion, my legs felt like they weighed 500 pounds, and my thighs bounced off each other when I walked. I had the Mirena for exactly 3 months when I had it removed. I am depressed and hate the way I look. I expected the water retention and weight to magically disappear when I had it removed. That didn't happen. I ate an all liquid diet today and still felt way overstuffed and didn't weigh any less or have any less water retention. I called the pharmacist and he said it takes 90 hours for your body to metabolize the Mirena after it is removed. I am now at 54 hours. Can anyone tell me how long it took for them to lose the water weight, and then how long to lose the extra pounds you have gained? I am getting really discouraged, and I am trying to look on the bright side. Thanks
