Sorry to hear of your misfortune! Hopefully all will go well and you will be pain-free soon.
Back in 1979 I was in a car crash that sent my head into the windshield (seatbelts weren't required then). I looked like I had run thru a rosebush. Well...long story short about 6 years ago I had a piece of glass come out! It was about as small as the lead on a new pencil. I knew it was there but couldn't do anything about it. The doctor said it wouldn't show up on x-rays because it was glass and to just let it work its way out. It looked like a pimple for a time before it finally came out.
Good as new now, just kinda freakish!

Would a super strong magnet pull it out?

Ouchie! Hope you get it out soon so the pain will be relieved and you can enjoy your new machine asap!

Good luck on getting it out. About 45 yrs ago my them sewing machine had a pin cushion on the door and I bent over to pick up something and broke a needle off in my hip, had it removed and bore the laughs in fact my husband still will tease me when I say I need some needles. Congrats on the new machine.
