Legal Question in Medical Malpractice in North Carolina
subject: phen-phen
can you explain to me , if you sign the blue form that was given out by the drug settlement with the american home products corporation, are you signing your privledges to file a lawsuit at a later date.
i had taken phen-phen for about 2 years and recently had an echocardigram that showed no abnormalties, but have been told that it may show up at a later date.
if it does show up that i do have damage to my heart then i would like my privledge to file a suit.

Sorry, I can't answer your question. Two firms in N.C. are advertising for fen-phen claims, they can probably provide you with an answer. Donaldson and Black 800-531-9191 or Martin and Jones 800-662-1234.
