| Bad Drivers What is the name of your state? North Carolina
Back in August of 2005, I was sitting at a Red light off an exit ramp. I was looking left with my foot on the break trying to make a right on red or green light which ever was clear and gave my turn. I was rear-ended sort of side ways(back of car drivers side). My car was a camry and his was a SUV, he hit me so hard it moved my car forward and off to the side, and he could not leave because his steering column was broken.He was found at fault 100%. I did not need an ambulance, no blood and as far as could tell no other MAJOR stuff that needed attention of an ambulance. However I was 3 and 1/2 months pregnant. I was very shook up due to the impact and suffered ALOT of pain in my neck back hip and knee. I went to ER and was discharged with soft tissue damage and recommendation for PT until baby was born.Conclusion of rotated hip and that's all they could do because I was pregnant, no x-rays or mri's ect. I could barely walk and the pain was bad but because I was pregnant.Was in the hospital over a month about 3-4mos later and had to deliver early by c-section because of placenta too low (causing hemorrage) and transverse lie position. Could that be caused from the impact? And is there any documentation to proove this? And because I had to wait so long to get x-rays and Mri's...and extensive therapy,will that be compensated? Does anyone have some helpful info?
This is VERY expensive having to go to dr's 3 times or more a week for over a year!!!! All because someone was not paying attention!!The pregnancy was NOT enjoyed(but thank god my preemie was great), it was painful , and I have not been able to be myself since, it has caused SO many problems.No one will hire me because of the appointments I bare.Still to this day I have a hard time standing and holding my baby without grief. He was on the cell phone but would not admit it to the officer! |
