Hi Misswingbat, Gee I hope you get everything sorted out,sounds like you have had a hell of a time. Iam going to pass this info onto my Mother,she had a Marina inserted as she had thickening of the Uterus(passed baby rearing now)but has had lots of bleeding,bloating just feeling off,down & always complaining she feels sick.She has also developed a red rash all over her face & thought it was her face cream,but she has used the same cream for years.We thought it might have been a food allergy,but now i think it`s the Marina. Also my Mum lost the first one,it too was floating around and had to be re-fitted with a new one.My Aunty said that in some very small cases,they might also be linked to Cervical Cancer . I don`t understand why Doctor`s don`t tell us all the Info we are intitled to know. Hope you are feeling better soon and everythings worka out for you hun.
