To be worried that I can't find my tampon - what should I do?

NC for this one! and TMI warning!

I woke up with a really heavy period this morning. I put in a tampon with an applicator. I don't usually use applicators but DH bought the wrong ones. So maybe it went up further than it usually does.
I went to take it out and I can't find it! but I think it must still be there because there's no blood when I wipe (sorry)
Obviously I know about the risks of TSS so I had a good feel around (sorry again) but I can't feel it at all.
I have had a bad cough and I've been running to the loo ad coughing on the loo because pelvic floor issues, so maybe it came out itself when I coughed??
but that doesn't explain the no blood?

So what should I do? I really can not be arsed with sitting down A&E for 45 years just to have a nurse rummage around for me or whatever it is they will do
Ideas welcome and thanks so much for reading

I was thinking about this one in the shower this morning too. Hope you managed to retrieve it?
