"had it placed in november 2015. first few months were great, no periods, small spotting to nothing at all. after 4-5 months i started having migraines with auras, weight gain, always tired. i snapped at my family often and the libido was gone. i didn&#039;t have the motivation to do anything. finally i started having chest pain, going down my left arm and around my back. i went to the doctor who ruled out heart attack and said it was muscular. i had the implant taken out in october 2016, butchered my arm to get it out, came to find out it was close to a nerve in my arm, causing me pain. went through a withdrawal of bad headaches 1 week after. then i felt like me again, happy, good sexual health, can&#039;t believe this implant can change a person."
