Guest guest Posted September 29, 2004 Report Share Posted September 29, 2004 --- Thanks for the info, It is hard to sue a doc, cuz I think I probably signed a paper to not make him liable for any problems,,, most do this to cover their a####. But I know I do have a suit against the manufacturers... this attorney has not gotten back w/me yet... Im not surprised, I dont have much faith in the Legal system,,,, but I will not give up,,, cuz If I can get a suit, it will go on public record cuz its public information from what I hear... so that would be a great hurdle just to publicize the horror of these implants, and what can happen.... Blessings, Iggy So if nothing happens, at least one voice was heard and made public... In , Lynda <coss@p...> wrote: > It is sooooooo hard to sue a doctor.
