Hi,
It is good for the endometriosis to have the coil fitted. Symptoms which you have been experiencing are most likely secondary to the coil. If you are so uncomfortable about them, consider the matter with your doctor and discuss about the other available options in your case. They are mostly harmless, but it is your choice whether you want the coil to be removed. Good luck.
