When I swallowed grinder pieces of glass I had a choking tickling sensation in my throat because of me swallowing small glass I threw up and found just a lil blood in my vomit later on that night I went to emergency room because I was feeling stomach pains in my stomach that were unbearable and I wanted to get checked out. The er doctor did nothing to help and told me rudely that he could not do any cat scan or test because if I swallowed pieces of glass it would be too hard to detect in any test and time will only make me better he could not to anything! I miss work 2 days after that day because I was so tramatize eating glass and had nightmares and couldn''t sleep because of this knowing I could of been seriously hurt and my stomach pain continue 2days after that, I called corporate. The same day and its been 4 days and I have not heard anything from them at all I called a couple of attorneys and some tell me that I cant do anything because the glass didnt cut me or hurt me!
The advice you received is correct. As a general matter, the civil litigation system exists to remedy actual injuries, not minor problems. If you have suffered no long-term medical consequences and not lost any meaningful wages, it will be very difficult to find an attorney to take your case because the damages that are recoverable, if any, will be too small to be worthwhile. The fact that you found the situation upsetting will likewise not give rise to a recovery unless you experienced distress so severe that you required medical treatment for it or were hospitalized, or unable, to work or function, as a result.
