New York Spinal Surgery-Unrecognized Nerve Injury

Listen in as Gerry Oginski, an experienced New York medical malpractice trial lawyer explains what happened when a woman’s complaints of nerve injury went undiagnosed leading to significant neurological injury.

A woman had spinal surgery and a few days later developed tingling, numbness and pain in her hands, legs and toes. Calls to the doctor’s office told the patient to stay at home until a hospital bed was available.

When the woman’s condition worsened, she arrived at the hospital admitting office, as instructed, and waited 5 hours before being seen by a doctor. Then the doctor took a CAT scan- which was the wrong test to evaluate her condition.

The correct imaging test was done a day later, further delaying the correct diagnosis and treatment. When the correct diagnosis was actually made, the neurosurgeon delayed another 8-10 hours before taking the patient to the operating room.

Watch the video to find out what happened.

lyme disease and lumbar cervical spine surgery

admin — Tue, 29 Jun 2010 13:00:31 +0000

There are other options for back pain and at least 13 weeks of ABX are needed for any sign of improvement in my spine. Consider lyme disease or other bacterial infections before spinal surgery if your back pain is unexplainable. 16 weeks of ABX and supplement treatment. I thought for sure that I was going to die and I probably would have if I couldnt get the medication I needed to combat this monster. And yes, I said chronic!
