I am truly very sorry you now require surgery due to perforation. I know that what you were searching for was a contraceptive that made your life easier and instead a short 3 weeks after the insertion of Mirena you realize you are not only not being protected but that you require surgery.
This is not legal advice, but I did get this straight from their website:
Perforation. Mirena may go through (perforate) the uterine wall. If your uterus is perforated, Mirena may no longer prevent pregnancy. It may move outside the uterus and can cause scarring, infection or damage to other organs. Surgery may be needed to have Mirena removed.
So, I am not really sure that you may have any legal case when the side effect is clearly stated :-(
