I Have Been Suffering With Really Bad Lower Abdominal Pain And Cramping

My doctor attempted to fit me with the mirena coil a couple of days ago and couldnt do it due to it being too painful to complete the fit. since then I have been suffering with really bad lower abdominal pain and cramping but no bleeding although heavier than normal discharge. will this settle down or should I seek medical advice ?

Yes you should. The discharge also neds to be checked to make sure there is no infection. Take antispasmodics for pain relief, and meet your doctor at the earliest.

I went to have a Mirena Coil removed today (had it for 5 years). It could not be found & so I will be referred to the hospital for it to be removed surgically. I am completely against this - I am 44 and have never had a day off work or been in hospital. What will happen if I simply ignore it and leave it where it is. It took an awful lot of courage to have it put in and make the appointment for it to be removed and am finding this a little distressing.

welcome to healthcaremagic
as per your information it may be that manipulation did cause some spasm of the uterine muscle and causing pain
persistent pain might be due to some infection

consultation with treating doctor and check up for proper treatment required
hope you are doing fine now
