Day 4 with the Mirena

Today I am cramping a little more.  I was told that as long as I am bleeding I will hurt because of the endometriosis.  Hopefully it will be better in a couple of days.

BTW, I am going to stop the counting of days and I will just highlight milestones, like the number of months or something and we will call this Living with Mirena.  That sounds good.

One of the concerns I am having is the fact that some people have issues with depression while on this or so I have read.  Just for the record, I already have problems with depression and I am on a daily medication.  I have suffered with depression since the age of 11 so I have quite a few coping techniques that I know work for me so I am able to manage a good part of the time but I never stop taking my meds no matter how good I feel.
