I have a friend who is asking me what to do. She got implanted birth control (implanon, I think) and now is complaining of severe anxiety due to an increase in pain and numbness in that arm.  She's talked to several clinicians in the past 2 weeks because she wanted it taken out, but couldn't get an appt with someone willing/able to take it out until tomorrow.  Do you think it's safe to wait until tomorrow to have this addressed?
Hello,Thanks for choosing health care magic for posting your query.I have gone through your question in detail and I can understand what you are going through.Implanon is an hormonal drug  which gets released in the body. This hormone causes anxiety and occasionally pain as well. Mostly the effects settle down in 2 weeks time, but if they are persisting then it would be wise to get it removed. There is no emergency and you may wait until tomorrow. Hope I am able to answer your concerns.If you have any further query, I would be glad to help you.In future if you wish to contact me directly, you can use the below mentioned link:bit.ly/dr-srikanth-reddy
