I too have had merina for about year and half. Feeling very bloated, heady,
and now skin rash spreading all over my face. Have gone up a dress size as well. Have been going through early menopause, feel like I am old before my time. Had the merina inserted for hot flushes, which stopped (great), but now all these other symptoms. Reading about other peoples problems I don't feel like I am the only one. I thought it would be easy to remove, now I am nervous.
