Event Description
I am writing this letter to see if someone can tell me why i am being treated like an animal, instead of a human being.I have no idea why in 2010, i had to have a hip transplant.The orthopedic surgeon that had done the first hip implant, stated that it was a stryker mfr part.It went bad.I had to have it redone and the orthopedic surgeon that did it stated that it was a birmingham hip implant.The first hip caused blood flow to stop, set up infection in my hip and deadend my pelvis bone.The first hip was done at (b)(6) medical center by dr (b)(6) in 2010.The second one was done in (b)(6) at (b)(6) by dr (b)(6).The first hip has destroyed my left side, it will never be reput, it has destroyed my whole life.I wish someone could please tell me why they are treating me like i have no feelings or i have the first hip that was supposed to be a good one.You can talk to a lawyer and they tell me that they cannot help me.I would like to know if you all could help me in any way.Here is the serial number for bad hip (b)(4).Size 8 5/8 mm.I would highly appreciate if the fda could please help me in any way.I can no longer handle this.The pain suffering will not leave.I hope the fda can see that i do need help and find out what kind of hip i had.I have to talk to attorney (b)(6), they seem to not be able to help me.Thank you.(b)(6).
