Suspected cervical polyp but mirena coil missing

Hi, 

I've been referred to see a gynaecologist (2 week wait) as I've had some bleeding, discharge and  twinges. I'm 46, perimoenopausal and on HRT. I saw a nurse today and she thinks that I have a polyp but the surrounding area is inflamed and very red. She asked another nurse to come in and have a look so alarm bells were ringing, by this point. In addition, neither of them could see the strings to my coil so that seems to have disappeared! I'm beside myself with worry, I'm trying to be rational about it all but my mind is in overdrive.

Has anyone else had something similar happen to them, especially with regards to a missing coil?

Thanks in advance,

LL

    Well I've never been able to feel them.

    He didn't say they were caught, but I could see the coil on the screen .

    I don't think I have a polyp as I'm sure he might of said.

    As i was leaving the nurse said try not to worry because if you have had abnormal bleeding they cant hust discharge you they need to find out why 

    im worried because ive had abnormal cells before and had loop diathermy.  So this is whats going on in my head.

    Bless you it's awful isn't it 

    That's good you only have a week to wait. 

    Please let me know how you get on., I feel for you going through all this too.

    But. It's nice having someone to share with.
