Legal Question in Medical Malpractice in Wisconsin
Negative effects of prescription drugs
I have multiple sclerosis and was given high doses of steroids to help arrest the symptoms. Pretty standard procedure I understand. The end result was a hip replacement due to avascular necrosis with the other one due to be done in the near future. Is there any legal recourse? I have lost my job as a result.

Re: Negative effects of prescription drugs
Maybe...I know that there are several cases around the country that are claiming damages due to AVN and steroid use. I am investigating one at the moment with another lawyer in Mississippi. It is very hard to offer an opinion on the quality of a case based only on an internet post. Please feel free to contact me.
