Leah - I don't think it's normal for a piece of the string to expel from your body.....I think you should call your Dr ASAP. Although I spotted for what seemed like forever, and it wasn't heavy like yours, I, too, felt like I could smell blood all the time....I guess because it was there!! The heart palpitations and anxiety as well as hot flashes....had them all. It only got worse so after 5 1/2 months I had it removed. I am 43, though. My skin went to pot after never having had skin problems in my life.....now, after 2 months post-removal, it's completely clear again. Good luck to you but I really think you should call your Dr about the string thing and to make sure your bleeding is within the "normal" parameters.
