Hi there. A lot of your symptoms could be Mirena related but not all. Blood in BM for example is unlikely to be IUD related. Your scheduled to have it removed and that's good. It will then be a question of addressing any residual symptoms and seeing where you should go from there. At this juncture I do not see any reason for you to go to A&E as they are unlikely to be very helpful. Good luck and thanks.
