Resolved Question: do i have a case to sue for medical malpractice?
i believe i have asthma. yeah i saw a lung doctor 3 times in 10 months time he never said i had asthma, even though i knew i did, gave me meds without seeing me passed me off as not having asthma and within 30 minutes of seeing my new regular doctor and her reading what i gave her she said i had at least exercise induced asthma. my lung doctor said i had reflux even though my symptoms pointed to asthma. my normal peak flow is between 360-400 and one time i saw him my peak flow was only 270 and he let me walk out of his office like that. and at my second appointment i gave the lugn doctor my asthma journal he took it for a few seconds then gave it back to me nevfer opened or read it(which pissed me off). and i just now thought of this: i called the doctor once and asked for an inhaler and he gave me on over the phone, and i just thought of this he gave me that inhaler when he told me that it was not asthma, which is wrong. it was like u give me a rescue inhaler which is used to treat asthma which u say i do not have. i looked up how to sue a doctor and it said u have to have had hurt done because of there neglect, but not sure about that. could i say that the hurt is that he gave me meds for a disease he said i did not have? i need help i want justice.

Resolved Question: medical negligence/malpractice law case?
About a year ago my sister had that surgery for hyperdydrosis where they clip into you chest and snip something to make you not sweat. She used to sweat from the neck and over. Now, she claims that she sweats from the neck down. She is every pissed off saying the dr. who did the surgery neglected to tell her that she could sweat somewhere else. I told her I'm sure somewhere in her medical records or consent forms it should have stated what the possible side effects might be. Since she claims the dr. didn't tell her, she wants to sue for medical negligence. Suppose the dr. really didn't tell her about sweating other places, does she have a case? I told her I don't think any lawyer will take her case. Am I right? That's what I thought. She said she wasn't going to sue to monetary value, but it was the principle. I told her a lawyer is in business to make money and I don't think she'll find one that will work on a contingency basis especially when the surgery did what it was supposed to do. Thanks Rebecca. I think you hit the nail on the head! Dr's nowadays cover their ass. I'm sure he went over the side effects. From what I've read about the surgery itself, compensation sweating is very common.
