    Sorry I can`t help you as I`ve never had a mirena. Good luck at the Dr`s, let us know how you get on

    I HATE going to the doctor!!!! I sat there for over 3 hours, when I finally got in I explained to the doctor what was happening, told him I couldn't feel the Mirena string. He then tells me to get up on the bed, gives my tummy a quick poke, hands me a referral and tells me to book in for an ultrasound! He didn't tell me ANYTHING!!! He didn't even attempt to find the string!! I walked out of his office in shock!
    I cant get in for the ultrasound until Monday. I'm not getting cramps anymore and no more bleeding, but, I do feel a bit funny in the tummy. Now I don't know if I am just being being dramatic, cos the doctor certainly didn't seem to care.

    You could always go to emergency at your hospital and they can do an us there. You dont need to suffer and be uncomfortable all weekend. Take some panadol for some relief too. Good Luck.
