I have the coil but not the mirena type (second one, first one 3 years, this one 2) and only felt for the strings during the first couple of months with the first one!! Never bothered since but everything was fine in my checkup.

I had mine done last march and i can't feel the strings either.
I know it is still there (where else could it be?)
I am not that worried.

No not really, more discomfort than pain just the same period-type cramps (although that could have been having a new one put in too)
