This certainly has some potential since there is a question as to why and whether they should have found this needle the first tiem you saw a doctor. The second issue is whether you would had the problems regardless of the delay in diagnosis. We would be happt to sit down with you and discuss the case at no cost to you and if we agree to take the case, there is no charge unless there is a recovery.
