Vanessa, 33, 10 years old from IUD Mirena, 1 meningioma

My name is Vanessa I am 33 years old and 2 beautiful boys aged 13 and 11. 

Now almost 1 year ago I learned that I had a meningioma (brain tumor) ...
How did I learn it? I was walking with my man and then he often said to me put your right head put back and even driving ... So I decided to go see the ophthalmologist.
And there he tells me that I have the optic nerve n ° 6 paralyzed ???? I ask him what to do so that it comes back. He already answers me we must find the cause of this paralysis so I send you to make a brain MRI. I have been there and the cold shower… .. it is written on the results paper: meningioma.Ne not knowing what this word meant I look at the internet, brain tumor …… and I could not describe my condition. Alone by learning such news we said to ourselves: “Why me?”/ What did I do to deserve this?
I see the ophthalmologist who tells me that given where she is placed, there is little chance that we want to operate….

So I made 30 radiotherapy sessions (we receive rays in the area concerned). The results of radiotherapy: Well the tumor did not move. It's a good thing… ..

When I saw several specialists they asked me if I had an IUD. … .. I even have an account that recommends the withdrawal of this one . This is what I ended up doing. Because this is the cause of this tumor…. So few women are aware of these side effects that will rot your life.

Today I testify because I want women who put or take hormones know that it is dangerous and that if they can do otherwise you have to do otherwise.

 

I find it distressing, annoying I do not know how to say that the doctors the specialists are aware and that we the main interested parties are in ignorance.
I am currently at home I cannot drive with the paralysis of the left eye, I have just made a bilateral salpingestomy (ablation of the tubes) so that I no longer have to take anything as contraception. I hope my testimony will avoid a lot of women what I am currently experiencing….
