I was misdiagnosed.I saw a general practictioner 3 times and asked specifically if she thought it might be cancerous-- the spot on my tongue. It was well documented. I had to have a full glossectomy due to her negligence in waiting 3 months to get referred. I approached 2 different well known lawyers and unfortunately due to malpractice laws the doctors are very protected against lawsuits due to all the frivolous ones people persued back int he 70's and 80's. It would take a lot of your own money to pursue it and even if you win it wouldn't be that much compensation that you would get.

Go ahead and approach legal counsil if you think you have a case but just kow that Drs. are very very protected.



Sad but true
