Almost 5 years ago, i had an iud put in. 2 weeks later, the doctor told me it fell out. When my husband & i started trying to get pregnant, i went to my local doc because it wasnt working. He ordered an xray. The iud is still in there. It's not in the right place yet still preventing pregnancy. But it also hurts everyday. Sometimes it hurts just to breathe. Sometimes it hurts so bad i cant stand up straight. The doctor who put it in said it isnt her fault. The hospital alone wants $8000 down & i dont have insurance. I got a letter last week that said that doctor is leaving her practice. Is there anything at all that i can do? I NEED this thing out of me! It hurts & god only knows what kind of damage it's done. Please help!!
