i don't know about the silicon test i was more worried about the barium. the web says it is added so the mirena show up on ultrasounds. i don't understand why they added barium because plastic can be seen on xrays without added barium. why would they add something so it can be seen on xray if it's not suppose to get so lost so easily?
i can't find any info on silicon test. sorry
don't worry yourself so much. i also used the mirena and it may have affected me but after 6 or 7 years i'm still here. i know it's hard to move on when you were hurt by doctors that suppose to help us.
i googled mirena barium here is what showed up.

Mirena Dosage - Women Home Page
Although Mirena is made of plastic, barium is added to the device so that it will show up on an x-ray (if necessary). An ultrasound can also show the location of Mirena.
