6 months on Mirena & still bleeding 3/4 weeks

Posted about this in family planning but busier here....

The bleeding is mostly light, often more spotting than bleeding but usually lasts for 3 out of 4 weeks! I thought it was improving over the last couple of months as I managed nearly 2 weeks without bleeding but now I have been bleeding/spotting since 14th June! Do I assume that because it hasn't settled by now it never will??

Will stick it out another couple of months until after my holiday in case removing it causes even more disruption after which I will go back to consultant who fitted to try to treat fibroids.

Oh and it also caused acne which has currently cleared up with antibiotics but I can't stay on those forever...

Have I given it long enough to say the coil is not for me??
