Woman Amputated After Several Doctor Errors

By Steven M. Levin and John J. Perconti

ADVERTISEMENTS

According to an article, ?after several (medical) mistakes, miscommunications, and misdiagnoses,? a woman ended up having both arms and legs amputated and since then filed a medical malpractice suit against her doctors. The woman who had a history of kidney stones went to the emergency room with kidney stone pain. Instead of treating the kidney stone, the stone turned into an infection that led to septic shock. This septic shock turned her limbs black from loss of blood circulation. All limbs had to be amputated due to this medical malpractice oversight, according to the article.
