Hi Doc Sarah and All,
Lately I have been trying to get legal representation for a lady in the NE USA who has arach. Apparently the last 2 ESI she got went straight to work with the arach, which happened very quickly and rapidly resulted in brain injury. She has almost no short term memory left.
What she has come across that has taken her months to realize, with my help is her docs who did the ESIs have 'lost' all the records of the events, and the MRI proving she has arach, and are acting extremely like guilty people covering something up.
I was speaking very recently with a prominent lawyer about restitution vis a vis arach, and was astonished. He said in his state (as in most here) you are limited to 250k settlement by law. He said in all honesty, it takes near that to win a case, especially with all the expert witnesses needed, and the ferocious fights the industry puts up (see attached site on the legal trickery used to dodge arach suits in Australia).. see page 14 of this pdf :

He said we would have to have a class action to get anything done, and several expert witnesses, who have studied this condition, to testify for us. I have come across several hundred names of ARC/aa researchers in google book 'arachnoiditis', but cannot find any of them physically to interview.
Do you all know who these researchers are or how to find and locate researchers for medical and scientific texts? They do not seem to be prominent on the internet, maybe for a reason. If anyone knows this, please contact me. There seem to be literally hundreds of them but I cannot contact them. Any ideas?
Many thanks, low A to all,
Al
