Guest guest Posted September 6, 2005 Report Share Posted September 6, 2005 I have been really suffering for 6 days. I have had terrible intestional cramping and loose stools. Not full blown diahrrea but very loose. The cramping is intense!! Plus I had my mirena IUD removed on I think the 19th. I had been spotting ever since. Then at approx 930 Sunday night I absolutely gushed blood...passing clots as big as my fist every time I stood up. The advice nurse said not to go into the ER as I wasnt doubled over in pain or soaking a pad every 15 minutes( I was having slight cramps and only soaking a pad every hour). Finally at 430AM...I couldnt take it any longer and went in to the ER. From what the DR(who isnt a gyn) said is that while I had the mirena inserted, I was still building up a lining (most women I guess dont), anyways thence the major bleeding, it was all coming at once. They removed most of the clots, and put me on provera(HRT therapy) for 10 days...it has almost stopped the bleeding entirely. My question is: Has anyone taken or is taking Relora. It is a vitamin supplement that reduces carb cravings etc. I love it but am wondering if that could be what is causing my intestional cramping and loose stools. I dont want to stop taking it, and am hoping if this is the cause, that its one that goes away as your body gets used to it. If not, then I may HAVE to stop because I feel like crap! I still have to go to work though as things are crazy and its our busiest time of the year. Huggles Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 6, 2005 Report Share Posted September 6, 2005 Sorry to hear about your bleeding and discomfort. I haven't taken those pills and obviously cannot suffer your symptoms...but I wanted you to know that I feel for you and hope you get relief soon. > I have been really suffering for 6 days.

Guest guest Posted September 6, 2005 Report Share Posted September 6, 2005 Thank you . My boss has the same intestional stuff going on so I dont think its the Relora....must be a bug.
