Hi everyone,
I need some help very bad - I was left disabled after a Heart ablation for Chronic A-Fibs - in which 5 caths were in my R/Groin and while in recovery they failed to get 1 of the sites sealed and I developed a pseudoaneurysm - I was then sent back to the hospital -some 3-4 weeks later after telling the doctor on my second follow-up my groin was still hurting very bad and he then listened to my large bump and said I have to go back to the hospital that my leg is bleeding for the Femostop procedure in which I was injured during the procedure and was then diagnoised having (lateral femoral cutaneous nerve injury). Which was performed by my pain management doctor. nerve conduction test and EMG Test.
I have been 100% disabled unable to walk,etc and have been in a wheel chair ever since - I have extreme pain and I'm on many meds and have a Spinalcord Stimulator to stop the extreme pain in my R/Groin and Leg - and I have tried to get legal help but the doctors will not help me - I pray that someone can tell me how and who can help me - I have worked all my life and now I don't know what to do - Please tell me what I can and should do -I just don't want to be left like this - Can you help? Thank you and may God be with you!
