So I sent myself some coin from electrum to mycelium and they never arrived.  The address is correct. There are 6 confirmations on the blockchain, yet I can't see it on my mycelium wallet.  What gives?

Any help is appreciated as I don't know how to best proceed or what my options are.

Once a transaction has 6 confirmations, it is extremely unlikely that an attacker without at least 50% of the network's computation power would be able to reverse it.

Glad to hear it worked out for you.

No need to panic in situations like this. So long as you control the address where the bitcoins are sent to they can never be lost.

You are using HD wallets (deterministic) and can always recover your BTC with your seed words even if you lose your phone/computer.

Just be sure to keep your seed in a safe location
