Paragard Copper IUD

I've read a bunch of these postings and I am wondering if anyone else feels uncomfortable during sex with the Paragard IUD? I swear that certain positions feel completely different and prettyawful during sex and I didn't start having this issue until after having the Paragard inserted. It will be 2 years in May and I feel like I have been a mess. I tried to tell myself that I just needed a little time to get back to normal after having my son, but I feel like things have gotten worse. Cramps are horrific and the mood swings I experience during my cycle are unbearable and quite troublesome. I have also had the hardest time shedding the extra pounds. I workout at least 6 days a week and eat well and nothing changes. Has anyone else had this issue as well?  Thinking of having it taken out in the next couple of weeks, but the alternatives don't seem any better.
