If your blood or pathology cultures came back postive for a methicillin resistant staphylococcus aureus infection and you were never told this, and you were not placed on the appropriate antibiotics, and now youo are dealing wit additional problems related to that, you may have a viable medical malpractice case. To know for sure, an attorney will have to look at the pertinent medical records. Also, now that the infection has finally been diagnosed, if the care you are receiving cures it without further damage, there will be a question about whether the case is financially viable.
