i am looking for a good reason why this happened
my doctor can`t give me a good one. doctor says
I was moving around to much, (I wasn`t). I think
it was one of three things or a combination of
them. 1,defective screws, 2, the ruff treatment
I got in the hospital, 3, the screws weren`t placed properly. they tell me that the only fix
is to have another operation. (no thanks). I`am
looking for a good attorney if someone knows of one. thanks jim
