Hello
Does anyone have experience of contacting a solicitor regarding medical negligence?
In March 2023 I was hit by a hard dig ball whilst out running and put up with discomfort for a month before going to my GP in April 2023. GP referred me to breast clinic where I was examined but NOT offered a mammogram or scan and told the pain was bruising.
July 2023 I went back to GP again as pain was still present and told nothing sinister after breast examination and told to take painkillers and that the bruising would take up to a year to heal. Back to GP again March 2024 as pain still present and was referred again to breast clinic.
April 2024 had mammogram, scan and core needle biopsy. Ten days late I was told I had Stage II Grade III HER2 positive breast cancer. I was horrified that a whole year was wasted after three professionals told me there was nothing to worry about and no images had been taken.
A friend of mine who is a retired nurse thinks I may have a cause for medical negligence.
Has anyone experience of this?
Thank you
