I had a laparoscopy done re: my endometriosis Feb 4th, 2013 at a local hospital. When I woke up in recovery I was greeted by my husban, Doctor & medical director. Confused on why the medical director was there at 1st, then the doctor explained what happened. The doctor said the laser tool malfunctioned & it burned my fallopian tube. The doctor wants to go back in via surgery in 1-2 months to check my fallopian tube. I understand I did not die & there's still a chance I can have kids with 1 fallopian tube BUT I dont feel like I should have gone through that. 1 hour surgery turned into 3.5. I was told 1-2 insicojns which turned into 4. Very sore after wards. I can still be harder to have kids with 1 fallopian tube versus 2. I called 2 attorneys & they said because I wouldn't win much money, not worth going to court & pursue it because I wouldn't end winning anything after court fees & etc. I know I have a case, they messed up if you ask me. Do I really not have a case?? Also, I'm not looking for a million dollars so can I talk with the medical director about compensation since she said to call her with Any questions or how do I handle this case? Also, who would I sue?
The medical director offered they pay for the future surgery instead of my insurance but I dont have any copays so that doesn't benefit me at all. My insurance is willing to pay for future surgeries.
