J:
Thank you for your question and sorry to hear about your problems. First, I recommend that you continue to seek to obtain the best possible medical care available to overcome the problems you are having. Second, I assume you are asking a lawyer because you thinking about legal recourse, that being a medical malpractice claim. If so, I suggest you consider hiring a lawyer who focuses his or her practice on such claims. That area of legal practice has become very specialized. Also, be aware that there are strict rules about how and even the timeframe in which such a claim must be filed.
I wish you the best and hope you find relief from your suffering soon!
Sandy
