For me, I had a trimaellor fracture of the right ankle with a spiral fracture of the fibula. Plates and screws placed and put in cast. As I look back, I remember the cast really hurt the top of my foot. Felt like it was rubbing it raw, but when they took the cast off everything looked ok, except the color was black and blue.
I told the physician for months something was not right I hurt so bad, but he refused to send me any where else or listen to my complaint.
After 6 months he said, "I don't know what to tell you, so I am referring you to someone else." That was 2 years Jan. and I never heard from his office again nor did they ever refer me.
I also was told malpractice is to hard to prove. My big thing is he should have known from my complaints that I had rsd and failed to refer me. So I know you are ****** off and upset. Unfortunately, as you can see on here, we are not alone.
