Hi Audrey,
The pink spotting you had could be mid cycle bleeding and you also have a lot of hormonal changes in your body.The symptoms you have been feeling could be due to those hormones.I suggest you wait till you miss a period and if your do,please do a pregnancy test first.If positive,you will need to see a gynaecologist.If negative just wait,because long term use of mirena can cause decreased bleeding.
