Having used one I don't see how it could be left in for 6 months. They are not comfortable to wear. If this did happen the bacteria build up would result in Toxic shock syndrome resulting it entering the bloodstream and result in death If not taken to a hospital. These things are not something you fool with or forget.

No, not unless you've still experiencing problems. Leaving tampons in for longer than the recommended 4-6 hours increases your risks of TSS and vaginal infections such as Bacterial Vaginosis - if you've shown no symptoms of either then you're okay, if you had shown symptoms you'd seek medical attention at the timeand not months later.

It would be close to impossible to leave a tampon for as long as 6 months without realizing it via feeling it or as a result of the bad odour it would likely cause. Obviously the biggest risk from this situation would be contracting Toxic Shock Syndrome (TSS) which can result in death. Tampons are also a major cause of vaginal infections like Bacterial Vaginosis, thus incorrect use such as by leaving tampons in too long is even more likely to result in a vaginal infection.
