Well I did it last night!!!!
I finally took the plunge, got some tweezers relaxed on a towel on the bed (cos remembered the blood from having it put in), found the end of wire and gently pulled with a nice steady and calm constant flow, thinking it was going to hurt soon, then realised it was actually out, I did not even feel a pull, I could not believe it came out so easily and pain free, i am even more convinced now that it was not meant for me, the pain and bleeding it has caused me I wish I had taken it out sooner.I did not even need a towel, i did not bleed at all, i took a couple of paracetomol afterwards just in case, i did start to have a few very mild cramps through the night, but nothing to what they were.
I have just started to have a few mild period cramps and a slight bleed tonight, i presume this will be a period, with retracting the hormones, (I have obviously stopped my estrogen patches )if so, I expect it to get a little worse before getting better for a few days, then i am looking forward to a few days with out having to wear sanitary towels as I have had to live in them the past 5.5months.
I was surprised how big it was, still cant believe i did not feel a thing, I will no doubt have to be honest when i do see my dr next.
Although this seemed the right thing for me to do, it is not something i would normally have done.
I do not recommend that any of you try this, it is always best to seek medical advice.
