QUESTION

I wanna know if I have a case or not.

Asked on Jun 25th, 2015 on Medical Malpractice - Virginia
More details to this question:
My dr told me I had hep c. He sent me to a specialist. He did not run more test to see of I had hep c. He just started me on medication. The medication then begin to make me really sick so when I would go to the dr to tell him that it was making me sick his response was " if you keep taking that medicine your going to die" I stopped taking the medicine on my own an I started feeling alot better. I went to 2 different hospitals an there test came back negative for hep c. I went to the last hospital that specialize in hepatology said that I had auto immune hepatitis which is my immune system was attacking my liver. But the medicine that I was taking for hep c triggered everything. So recently I've had a liver transplant an I'm on immunosuppressive medicine for the rest of my life. I been going through the chronic pain every since all of this started. I feel like If the dr would've did a liver biopsy then all of this could've been avoided instead of placing me on medication
