Call 111 Nas, tonight. They’ll get you in somewhere tomorrow morning.
Don’t underplay your symptoms to them, I say that because it’s what we’re all prone to do.

I agree with ATB and March. 111. A&E or your closest walk in clinic.

I feel for you.

Is it something a sexual health clinic could help with, I wonder...

I’ve just read your posts Nas, I agree, it sounds like a UTI . More than likely caused by the coil insertion.

Take a urine sample to your gp surgery first thing and get them to test it. You can just drop it into reception, and they will get a dr to ring you with the results ( this is what they do in my surgery… hopefully yours is the same)

Drink plenty of water to flush through and try and rest.

Nas, I hope you can get to see someone soon who can diagnose this properly ...just to say that when I had Mirena coil fitted some years ago I got a very bad uti almost immediately, about 3 days after the fitting. It really sounds like this might be the case for you too. It is quite a common occurrence with this procedure apparently.
I hope you can make it to A&E or your Dr asap. Take care.

Thanks Jane

Could could be right re the Mirena.
The only thing is, I experienced this quite a bit in April. It was when I was on very low dose oral HRT, that the bladder kicked off big time. No coil was in place then.

Going to try to get to a+e today.

Morning Nas, I’ve been worried about you! I know you’re tired, but take a cab if you need to and get to a & e ASAP. Ring 111 if you like first but I’m sure they’re going to tell you to go. Please let us know how you get on.

Thankyou all.
I went to a+e, no infection, bloods normal.

Doctor suggested weakened bladder tissue causing issue. So, somehow I must get to my meno appt on Thursday to be examined.

Got home, huge headache and then started vomiting all afternoon. So currently trying to manage that and the weeing!  :'(

I dont know if this all a bug, or an adverse reaction to the mirena. All I know is, the headache is like no other and I feel grim.

Thanks again and hope you have all had a better day than me  :) x

Oh I’m sorry to hear you haven’t been able to get any relief or a diagnosis. I feel for you so much, this is horrible and now vomiting! I really hope it’s nothing to do with the mirena. You must be exhausted. I am glad it wasn’t a kidney infection and that was ruled out. Thanks for letting us know.
