Had to get a medical expert opinion. If I had one would the cost of medical negligence case be cheaper?

ERs repeatedly failed to recognize obvious cervical myelopathy, despite classic red flags and abnormal imaging. Providers ignored a critical CT addendum and never escalated me to neurosurgery. My seizure‑like episodes and collapses were never connected to cervical instability, even though they resolved only after stabilization. I was forced to wait 8 months for surgery while experiencing a rapid neurological decline.

Post‑operative instability and hardware failure were missed for another year, prolonging my symptoms. Ultimately, multiple loose screws and a major cervical collapse requiring a fusion to T4 were found. I lived with disabling neurological symptoms for nearly 2 years because no one recognized or addressed the underlying instability. These failures represent a systemic breakdown in diagnosis, escalation, and post‑operative care, resulting in permanent neurological injury.
