Is OB GYN malpractice? =(?
In early Sept. I started feeling ill. By Mid Sept in Emergency Room a few times with crippling abdomen pain. The first time they said stress, next they refered me to GYN. The GYN they refered me to had 21 day waiting period. Looked in Yellow pages and \went to OB GYN within a few days after pleading for an urgent appointment. I was 100% thrall w/ history to this OB GYN Dr. He performed exams, Ultra Sound - said I was fine - sent for MRI said all was Fine - By mid October I was in horrific pain he called " SAID "Its all over for you, your in menopause you’ll feel better soon- Said all tests say FINE MRI Ultra etc... and said Surgery would be a waste of time. Further, he listed 4 specifics I DID NOT HAVE - while a month ½ later I had learned every last one of them! After bed ridden until end OCT., Went to friends Dr.. I was internally bleeding, Adenomyosis, endometriosis and etc... Basically no choice by Nov. 5th when saw Dr. Out of state CT - TOO LATE - Had full hysterectomy. Been out of work since 1st week of Sept. now STD ran out after 3 mos. LTD just completed investigation no preexisting so they are soon to pay ( I PRAY). Not 100% My rt ovary and ligaments were plastered to my rt hip - glued like, my left affixed to colon . 1/2 abdomen filled with blood and liver moved up to right, my Uterus was ABOUT TO BURST per Surgeon I would have died if no surgery. My husband ped away on mothers day last year. Because I shared that with Dr. he and the ER dismissed me as a head case. Now, I cant have kids in the prime of my life. Filed a formal complaint with my health insurance Aetna. Need a lawyer I need to know they take his license away. The Dr. who did surgery said there is no way an MRI could not pick up on this. So if this mess was not there at time of MRI - than shame on him 3 weeks later. Or if it was there, what happened in that MRI and Ultra sound 3 weeks earlier? Is it custom for him to tell patients its all in their head?
