Has anyone had heart palpitations while using the mirena iud?

I have edema on my lower legs and feet, dizziness and high blood pressure about the rate of 150+ which never goes down. Im 45yo and have had my mirena on february 2024. Its been 4 months. I am desperate and sad. I had my mirena to control the growth of my fibroids (the biggest being 7x8 cm) and heavy bleeding. My doctor said he removed mirena from patients with edema but never encountered a person with related high blood pressure... Anybody ever experienced high blood pressure besides heart palpitations?? Should I get it removed??

Yes!! I got my IUD placed in Dec of 2015 and thought it was a decent choice at first but after a few months of my body adjusting it all went to hell. Constant fatigue and dizziness. I am currently being monitored by a cardiologist, wearing a halter monitor and taking 100mg of beta blockers to keep my heart rate down after 3 ER trips and one admission. I don't know for certain that it is abuse by my IUD but I have a gut feeling it is. Getting this thing removed on Monday and praying K have the same outcome as many others have. Side effects go away!!!
