I have been having some serious rhythm disturbances with my heart since i was about 12 years old. My family doctor absolutely refused to send me to a specialist to see what was going on, all he would ever tell me is that it was probably something harmless and i was to young to have a serious condition. Finally, i decided to seek a second opinion, my new doctor sent me to a cardiologist who discovered that i have a serious heart arrythmia called ventricular tachyardia, and now i'm about to undergo an ablation. Now my question!! Should I seek some legal advice on this matter? the fact that my regular doctor avoided sending me to someone who knew more than him has basically lead to my treatment being postponed, so to speak, i mean this could have been taken care of years ago, now i'm confused, my family tells me to talk to an attorney, but not really sure if i have a case!! any advice would be helpful, especially from someone in the legal field, thank you.
