God that must be very worrying for you. I'm on my 3rd coil and have never had an issue like that. I have never used mines for contraception so I never check the threads.

I don't understand why you have to wait a week before they will refer you for a scan? Perhaps they don't think it's serious?

I'm sure you would still be able to have sex if it's not painful using another type of contraception.

Why do you gave to wait a week, to see doctor, why didn't he refer you today for a scan, If your worried go A&E.
