Missing Mirena!!
I went in a wieek ago to check up on my IUD (Mirena) and they couldn't locatevthe strings. I went in for an ultrasound and my IUD was nowhere to be found! I either passed it (ouch) or it has traveled somewhere else! I am going in for a ct scan next week so wish me luck! Has anyone had this happen?
Also, I am not sure if I can go through the procedure again. It was pretty painful for me and there was no numbing involved. My sister had the procedure done and was given a shot and said it wasn't that bad.
I think that when I go back to get MIrena again, I will find an office that does the numbing shot!
Re: Missing Mirena!!
Did you have any unusual pain with that?
It should show up with an abdominal XRay. If I was paying for the CT, I'd ask for an Xray first. The Xray is much cheaper.
My fears were answered!
They found the Mirena in my left pelvis cavity just chillin'. I went in for surgery yesterday bright and early.
Because they determined that when it was first put in by a nurse midwife, she inserted ( stabbed me) right through the uterus and the IUD was never in place. I did miss my follow-up appt but luckily I had a feeling something wasn't right!
Call me crazy, but I had them insert another one while I was under anesthesia! I experienced heavy heavy bleeding all yesterday and after a midnight trip to the ER across town, the doctor determined that when they clamped my cervix to insert the new one, there was a tear that they had to fix. After all of that, and a ridiculously long day and night with no sleep, I am finally feeling confident about everything!
