Post Implanon day 5

I am now on day 5 and the tiredness hasn't been an issue but I am cramping soooo bad. It took me awhile to realize that these are menstrual cramps because I haven't had them in forever! I'm also a tad irritable, which leads me to my next realization . . .

I have tried looking up "Implanon removal side effects" and there isn't much out there! I've read a few posts but most of the women are vague about it. Then, the rest of the posts are women complaining about the side effects they had while ON Implanon when the forum is for side effects AFTER Implanon! It's really pissing me off! So, hopefully this blog will, again, help women out there wanting to know about the entire process of getting Implanon, beginning to end that actually stays on topic!!! (grrrr, and what is with all the bad spelling/no punctuation/or all caps? All caps are harder for people to read, so people are more likely to skip over your comments. Also, have these women decided to worship Faulkner and take on stream of consciousness writing a la Benjy, the man-child? Thats right - you sounds like an idiot when you don't punctuate! Come on ladies, it's hard to take your complaints seriously when you type like a 3rd grader!). Sorry for that terrible grammar rant, I'm a bit of stickler when it comes to punctuation and all caps typing. I think I also mentioned my irritability today, so chalk some of it up to that.

So, here is a summation of all the side effects for those who don't want to read this long ass post:

-Nausea
-Tiredness
-Cramps
-Irritability

Kinda sounds like I'm going to have a period, doesn't it? Well, after writing this post, I just discovered that I started my first period in 2 and a half years! Explains all the symptoms now . . . but I won't apologize for the grammar rant.
