Medical Review Panel Today
Posted: Tue Jul 12, 2011 6:15 am
Hi Everyone,
I haven't been on here in a while due to a lot of crazyness going on in my life.
However, today marks multiple important things:
1. The medical review board will be meeting today, July 12th, to review my case of my doctor severing two nerves (suprascapular and C5/C6 at Erbs pt) during a surgery. No matter what the outcome, it will still go to trial, but basedon the reviewpanels comments - this will sway the jury heavily. I ask that if you believe in God, you pray for me as well as the doctors reviewing the case that whatever the right decision is, that they make it. I know it is all in God's hands now.
2. Today also marks exactly 2.5 years since my brachial plexus nerve repair. I still live with chronic nerve pain. With taking topamax for it, it usually is around a 4 daily unless I exercise it more, but without the meds it gets to 7-9 pretty quick. I have much of my movement back, but still cannot reach above my head or reach behind my back. Coming from not being able to move it at all though, I am very grateful for what I have gotten back.
I hope all is well with everyone and I will hopefully be getting on the boards to post more soon!
