QUESTION
Do I have a law suit if they didn’t even check what I told them was wrong?

More details to this question:
I went to the hospital on Saturday due to gallbladder issues. They ended up doing a CT scan and seen cyst on my ovaries never said anything about the gallbladder. They sent me home with medicine for the pelvic problem. It started getting worse and worse so I called the ambulance went back to the ER and they said that my gallbladder had a lot of stones in it. They needed to do surgery so they admitted me. Then they said they had to do a test with a camera to see if a stone was in the duct. During this process, I ended up with pancreatitis. They had to treat that before they could do the gallbladder surgery so I ended up being in the hospital over a week for a one day procedure not to mention the first time I went they didn’t even check what I told them was wrong.

Yes, you have a claim to consider. Usually, it is not possible to give a response on medical malpractice questions within the scope of a site like this one. Medical malpractice cases are involved. After a consultation, you will be helped through an investigation to evaluate the claim (obtain records, obtain a required expert opinion, etc.). An important question would be whether much of the treatment and time would have been the same regardless any omission. I suggest you refrain from discussing the case and arrange a consultation as soon as you are able. If it applies, continue to follow medical advice. Bring those records and invoices you have available to the consultation.
