Legal Question in Medical Malpractice in Virginia

I had a hysterectomy and bladder sling surgery 5 years ago, now I have a bacterial infection I am on 3 different meds and need another surgery due to the fact that either packing left inside me is coming out or the sling around my bladder has come off. Either way I am in pain and I need a solution. Nikaya Johnson, Chesapeake va.
