I have had a coil fitted, and subsequently gone back to doctor after being unable to find it.
Was referred to hospital for ultrasound. Was told by hospital it would be 4 months+ waiting list, so we had to pay for it privately. They didn't find anything.
Went back to doctors today, had x-ray same day (why didn't they do it before), showed perforated womb.
Anyway, has anyone gone through procedure to remove it?
And secondly should we be speaking to solicitors, is this (the perforation) a de facto indication of negligence in the fitting of the coil? The doctor didn't seem that competent really.
