Ouch - still

I had an IUD fitted (copper, and I haven't had kids) 10 days ago and it's still causing me enough pain that I'm taking 400mg Ibuprofen three times a day - has anyone else had anything like this for this long. I've been to the nurse and she just said to persevere. The spotting has stopped, but I just don't know whether it's normal to have pain this long.
I was on progesterone pills right up to the fitting and I had the mother af all periods 2 days after it was put in but now it's just like a not-so-dull ache continuously.
Any thoughts?
PS REALLY good advice pre-fitting on this forum!
