A Brooklyn Park woman is suing a pain clinic in the Twin Cities area for being negligent in its use of steroids that were contaminated with the fungus that was responsible for the 2012 meningitis outbreak.

Traci Maccoux, 23, filed a lawsuit in mid-March against medical Pain Specialists, stating that she had received steroid injections at the clinic in the summer of 2012.

Maccoux is one of over 700 individuals who contracted meningitis because of the contaminated steroid injections originating from a Framingham, Massachusetts compounding facility.

This is the first lawsuit filed against Medical Advanced Pain Specialists, but is one of two clinics in Minnesota that purchased the contaminated steroids from the manufacturer, which has now had to file for bankruptcy.

Clinic officials have not commented on the lawsuit, but they made a brief statement on Monday stating they had attempted to address the questions and concerns of all individuals who receive care at their facility.

Maccoux is one of 12 confirmed meningitis cases in the state and was hospitalized in October for 10 days. The fungal meningitis infection she contracted was potentially deadly, as it involved infection of the spinal cord and brain. She had received her steroid shots in July and August.

In her lawsuit, she states that the pain clinic violated state law and breached its duty to its patients when it purchased the steroids from the compounding facility, which was not licensed to manufacture or sell the steroid in bulk. A federal investigation found that the New England Compounding Center was selling the steroid in bulk. They had sold approximately 17,000 vials in over 20 states.

Maccoux said in an interview that she was upset that the clinic had bought steroids from such a facility and had hoped that they would know better. She said she assumed that the clinic would ensure everything was safe.

Maccoux said that she found out in October that she was one of almost 1,000 people in Minnesota who had received the steroid injection from the contaminated vials. A few days later, it was confirmed that she had contracted fungal meningitis.

In her lawsuit, it is stated that she had extreme pain, hallucinations, blurry vision, flu-like symptoms, and dizziness. She is still taking the antifungal drug that saved her, but it has very uncomfortable side effects. She said she had to stop attending her college classes because she has been unable to drive or even work. So far her hospital bills are exceeding $110,000, according to her attorney.

If you have suffered serious side effects after coming into contact with a contaminated product, you may be eligible for compensation. For help learning more about the legal options that may be available to you, contact the Bloomington personal injury lawyers at TSR Injury Law today.

This cessation of production comes after a post-market surveillance of data that has identified a trend in the failure of these products. Stryker states that they will be working with the medical community in order to better understand what is occurring with the devices to prevent the issue in the future.

As for how they have failed, the modular design of the Stryker products consists of a stem and a neck. The recall came after a Journal of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons article stated that all modular-neck hip stems posed potential risks. While the product poses a great number of benefits, it was found that the disadvantages possibly outweighed the advantages. The primary disadvantage was the fact that corrosion could result in debris and metal ions being released within a person’s body.

It was around the time of the article that Stryker sent distributors an Urgent Field Safety Notice regarding the Rejuvenate and ABG II. The notice stated that it was possible that metal debris, as well as ion generation could result, and so can fretting and/or corrosion in the area of the modular neck junction.

Consequences Of Metal Ions

If metal ions are released into the body, the consequences include:

• Necrosis
• Pain
• Metallosis
• Revision surgery
• Adverse local tissue reaction
• Osteolysis
• Allergic reaction to the ions, resulting in revision surgery

Currently, the statistics state that the adverse local tissue reaction rate is less than 0.5% of the patients who had received the devices. The incidence of complications are deemed low at this time, but the need for individuals to consult with a Minnesota personal injury lawyer could increase as more of these devices possibly fail in the patients who received them prior to the recall.

To know whether or not you received the Rejuvenate or the ABG II, you can speak to your surgeon and they will tell you. You also have the right to review your medical records for the identification of the specific implant that you received. If you are feeling pain or experiencing swelling around the implant, you should contact your surgeon as soon as possible. If you have no pain, you should arrange for a follow-up with your surgeon to check the implant.

If you have experienced complications related to the Stryker Rejuvenate or ABG II, see your surgeon immediately. Revision surgery may be required to keep the device from making you ill.

Once it is determined that there is a problem with your implant, you can call TSR Injury Law at (612) TSR-TIME to set up your free consultation. A Minneapolis injury attorney can evaluate your medical records and advise you of what the process entails when filing a claim against the manufacturer to pay for any past or future revision surgeries, medical bills related to device complications, and any other damages you may be entitled to.

The number of vaginal mesh lawsuits continue to grow with some monetary awards being in the millions and even husbands being awarded monetary damages up to $500,000 because of how their own lives have been affected by the problems their wives have had.

A new lawsuit was filed in October 2011 by a woman who claims that she experienced severe consequences because of the use of vaginal mesh to treat stress urinary incontinence.

The plaintiff states in her complaint that on January 4, 2008, she received the mesh implant.

Are you a victim? You may be eligible for financial compensation. To learn more about the legal options that may be available to you, contact a Minneapolis injury attorney from TSR Injury Law today for your free consultation.

Stress urinary incontinence and pelvic organ prolapsed occur when the pelvic muscles weaken. This tends to be associated with menopause, childbirth, or surgery. The plaintiff claims that it wasn’t long after the implant as in place that she started experiencing pelvic pain, urinary issues, infection, and a number of other injuries. This resulted in her hiring a vaginal mesh attorney who would assist her and her husband with their lawsuit.

This plaintiff is just one of many, as many others have experienced the same systems and others, such as immune reactions to the mesh and friction between tissue and the mesh. Major nerves have been injured and the mesh has degraded within the body. The FDA had notified patients in 2008 of the warnings associated with the products, advising patients that the complications were common. However, there are many products remaining on the market.

In the October 2012 case, the plaintiff is looking for damages from the manufacturer for pain and suffering and they want to discourage the profits of the company.

As more plaintiffs come forward, they are seeking compensation after they have exhausted their emotional and financial resources from trying to treat the health problems that the implants have caused. In addition, the manufacturers are also ordered to pay for corrective surgery, if corrective surgery can be performed to correct the problem. In some cases, the old mesh cannot be removed or the issue cannot be corrected, resulting in even more severe lifelong consequences.

It is now January and new fungal meningitis cases are still popping up four months after the New England Compounding Center issued a voluntary recall of several lots of its steroid injection, Methylprednisolone Acetate. In addition to the new cases of fungal infections, other infections have come about as well.

It was found that the primary contaminant in the drug was Exserohilum, which is a type of black mold. The pathogens from the mold contaminated the three lots during the compounding process, which then led to fungal meningitis and other health issues in patients who received the injections. It has been estimated that as many as 14,000 patients were exposed to the contaminated drug and now the personal injury lawsuits have began.

As of now, there have been 664 reported cases and 40 of the individuals died from fungal meningitis.

And while fungal meningitis has received most of the attention, there have also been joint and spinal infections that have occurred near injection sites. Although new meningitis cases have come about, the number and frequency is starting to wane while the number of spinal infections is increasing. This has a lot to do with the fact that spinal infections can take a while to appear.

In Minnesota, there have been 10 cases of fungal meningitis since the late September outbreak and there are two reports of spinal infections. A total of six medical facilities in the state received the drug from the recalled lots. In addition, the FDA has said they cannot verify whether or not other drugs made at the New England Compounding Center are safe. It is estimated that 111 facilities throughout Minnesota have received other drugs from the facility.

This nationwide outbreak has caused the FDA to scramble because of concerns that have been raised by the outbreak. In late December, there was a hearing held to establish how the federal government and the states should regulate compounding pharmacies. Right now, it is the responsibility of state pharmacy boards to oversee these facilities, but many of the pharmacies are expanding from small operations to large-scale distribution with clients in multiple states. This multi-state dealing is why it may be necessary to push for federal oversight.

At the same time, the government agencies have been struggling to keep up with complaints from patients. On December 20, 2012, the CDC encouraged doctors to consider using MRIs for patients who had pain that did not improve after getting the injection. The previous recommendation was just for patients that had symptoms that were worsening.

As time goes on, new recommendations may come about, improved oversight of compounding facilities may become a reality, and individuals may not have to worry so much about contaminated drugs.

It has been determined in recent years that Yaz belongs on the dangerous drugs list, as it has been the subject of a number of class action lawsuits around the country.

Cathy Wagamon, a Minnesota woman, has filed a lawsuit that states she suffered a pulmonary embolism as a direct result of her use of Yaz.

Both Yaz and Yasmin are oral contraceptives that are quite popular and they have been linked to stroke, pulmonary embolism, heart attack, gallbladder disease, deep vein thrombosis, and other serious life-threatening issues. A number of women have filed lawsuits against Bayer, the manufacturer, including Wagamon, whose lawsuit was filed in the multidistrict litigation case.

Wagamon is seeking compensation for the condition that she suffered from after using the drug. She states that Bayer failed to warn of the effects of the popular birth control pill.

Wagamon began taking it on October 1, 2009 and it was shortly after that she developed the pulmonary embolism after she developed deep vein thrombosis. Deep vein thrombosis is a condition in which blood clots form deep within the veins. Pulmonary embolisms, on the other hand, can be potentially fatal because it involves a blood clot in the lungs.

Wagamon states in her suit that she would not have taken the pill had she known that there was such a high risk of developing these conditions. She cites the fact that the Food and Drug Administration did receive complaints from patients about the side effects shortly after the drug went on the market. However, Bayer Pharmaceuticals did not issue the proper warnings regarding the side effects and did not notify the FDA. The suit claims that Bayer continued to market Yaz as a superior birth control pill that was safe.

Some of the Yaz lawsuits in the country have been consolidated in an ongoing multidistrict litigation case that deals with the side effects of the medication. Settlements have been reached out of court and approximately 1,444 plaintiffs have received these settlements so far. This is a far cry from the 14,000 cases that are still pending.

If you have recently used DuPont’s Imprelis Herbicide and your trees are dying, you may have a legal claim to recover your losses.

Michigan, Ohio, and a number of other states have opened class-action lawsuits against DuPont, alleging that the use of their Imprelis Herbicide has resulted in a large number of tree deaths. Willows, poplars, eastern white pine trees, conifers, evergreen trees, and many other tree species have been killed. Tree farm owners who have lost large numbers of trees have also been affected, and it has severely compromised their business.

Imprelis Active Ingredients

An article in Huffington Post Green stated that DuPont Imprelis’s active ingredient does not break down in compost. It is important that the active ingredient in a herbicide breaks down so that the ingredient, if harmful in concentrated form, does not damage the vegetation. There is an Imprelis label that states that any clippings from areas treated by Imprelis should not be used as compost or mulch.

DuPont Imprelis Herbicide Banned

In August 2012, the EPA banned further sale of DuPont’s Imprelis Herbicide. By that point, it was estimated that the damage was in the a billions of dollars. Trees as tall as 40 to 50 feet had experienced damage or had been killed. Many of these trees had been around 30 to 50 years and the cost to replace them is upward of $20,000.

As for what led to the EPA ban, the EPA acted after it was shown that DuPont’s own data stated that certain coniferous trees, including the balsam fir, white pine, and Norway spruce were susceptible to damage or death by Imprelis’s active ingredient. Around the time the “stop sale” was issued, DuPont had turned over 7,000 reports that included incidents of tree damage and tree death related to the application of Imprelis.

Nonetheless, DuPont had already stated on August 4 that they would stop selling Imprelis. They also stated that they would put a product return and refund program in place for those customers who had purchased the product.

Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act

The FIFRA is what the stop-sale order was issued under. The FIFRA is a federal law that requires pesticide products and the facilities that produce them to register them. The pesticides must also be properly labeled. The EPA did state that they were going to investigate whether or not the tree deaths may have been due to product misuse. The first place they looked for incorrect directions was the product label, warnings, etc. However, it seems that the main culprit may be the uptake of the harmful product through root systems.

Symptoms of Diffuse Electrical Injury

A Diffuse Electrical Injury (DEI) presents with an entirely different set of responses to an electric shock than has commonly been accepted. The responses associated with diffuse electrical injury have been validated in the last 15-20 years by the ability to gather statistics online from similar cases around the world.

The symptoms of Diffuse Electrical Injury are random and unpredictable. They include:

• injury not proportional to the energy of the shock
• injury not related to the voltage of the contact
• injury not related to the duration of the contact
• injury not related to the theoretical path of the current

About Diffuse Electrical Injury

Diffuse electrical injury (DEI) is also referred to as electric shock syndrome or post electric shock syndrome. It is an injury to the body following an electrical contact where the bodily response is neither proportional to the parameters of the shock (voltage, current, duration), nor is the tissue response limited to the theoretical current pathway. The indications of DEI are an assortment of physical complaints that include:

• tingling
• weakness
• pins and needles
• muscle twitches
• muscle spasms
• general fatigue
• broad diffuse pain

emotional symptoms that include:

• personality changes
• depression
• stress / anxiety
• anger / temper

and cognitive impairments that include:

• inability to concentrate
• slower thinking
• short term memory loss
• difficulty thinking clearly

Some results from MRIs are providing evidence that the differences shown on neuropsychological test batteries have an organic basis. These victims are not lying, crazy, or malingering.

Minnesota health officials believe that “lean finely textured beef” made by Beef Products, Inc. was contaminated with E. coli and caused at least five people to become ill in 2009 with one of those individuals dying. Now, Beef Products, Inc. is pursuing a lawsuit against two former USDA microbiologists and ABC News because the two raised concerns about the product and there were also a number of other accusations made.

The man who died, Robert Danell, 62, had Down Syndrome and died of kidney failure not long after he had consumed the beef.

His family feels that he because deathly ill from eating what is frequently referred to as “pink slime.” This is the beef scraps that are to be treated with ammonia to kill pathogens. Now the family has filed a wrongful death lawsuit against Beef Products, Inc.

The lawsuit was filed on January 8 in which BPI is blamed in addition to seven other companies for selling the “pink slime” that resulted in the death of Danell. Danell was one of 25 people in a 17 state case to become sick from the 2008 E. coli outbreak. This outbreak would be traced back to a slaughterhouse in Colorado, JBS Swift & Company. JBS has also been included in the lawsuit as defendants.

At first, nine of the individuals who became sick said that they had eaten steak at Applebees. This is how the CDC was able to trace where the bacteria came from. They found that the beef had been purchased from JBS before it was sent to the Applebees restaurant chain. This resulted in the recall of almost 250,000 pounds of beef in December 2009. However, Minnesota health officials were receiving reports of illnesses that were not linked to the same beef.

Danell had eaten a hamburger on December 28 at Opportunity Manor. He had also consumed Swedish meatballs a couple of days later. Both of these meals contained beef from Tyson that contained the “pink slime” from BPI. It was on January 4 that Danell would start experiencing stomach pains and bloody diarrhea. He would continue to get progressively worse. He would pass away on June 19, 2010.

It was found that Tyson had mixed the BPI beef into its own ground beef because it was cheaper and then sold the meat to multiple companies for use in lasagna, hamburger patties, and Swedish Meatballs. These are three foods that Danell had eaten in the days before coming sick. Unfortunately, these items were not included in the beef recall. Not being subject to a recall had a lot to do with the fact that hamburger can contain trim from a number of sources, making tracing back where the individual parts that make up the meat very difficult. Nonetheless, molecular tests did trace the tainted beef back to JBS.

BPI feels that the Danell lawsuit lacks merit and that the company will aggressively defend itself. The family says it is not about the money, as they want to show how this well-loved individual died at the alleged hands of the chain of production.

A new Levaquin lawsuit has been filed in Minnesota.

Albert Miller filed his lawsuit on September 14, against manufacturer Johnson & Johnson, citing that the drug is responsible for his injuries.

Miller says in his suit that he took Levaquin after being prescribed the drug by his physician and that he now has to undergo painful treatments for the long-term.

The damages he seeks include strict liability, unjust enrichment, negligence, breach of implied and express warranties, fraud, and deceptive trade practices.

Have you suffered serious side effects after taking the drug “Levaquin”? You may be eligible for compensation. Contact a personal injury lawyer in Bloomington, MN at TSR Injury Law for your free consultation.

TSR Injury Law – Ph: (612) TSR-TIME.

Currently, the U.S. Judicial Panel on multidistrict Litigation created an MDL to speed up the litigation and settlement process for the large number of lawsuits that are being filed against Johnson & Johnson. What the MDL does is promote efficiency in the way of consolidating legal issues so that time can be saved for all parties involved. It also conserves judicial resources.

This is different from a class action lawsuit because all of the cases are separate, which means they are treated one-by-one based upon the facts and the circumstances within each. Miller joined the MDL.

Approved by the FDA in 1997, the fluoroquinolone antibiotic was used to treat sinusitis, bronchitis, and other infections. However, it has been associated with the degrading of tendons and this has resulted in some patients experiencing tendon injuries.

Since it was approved, the FDA has required three warning labels to be added to the drug by Johnson & Johnson. The lawsuit, however, alleges that the company does not see the severity of the tendon issues that some people are experiencing.

It has been theorized by the medical community that the synthetic antibiotics in Levaquin are toxic to tendon fibers. This may be the reason behind the number of tendon ruptures that have occurred in patients taking Levaquin. Some patients have claimed they developed tendonitis as a result, while others have suffered ruptured tendons. Both tendon issues require long-term treatments.

E. Coli, salmonella, and listeria are just some of the fatal diseases we think about when we hear the words “raw milk.”

A Minnesota man has been accused of violating state raw milk laws. His attorney argues that he was simply the middle man within a group of people who were sharing their food.

The man, Alvin Schlangen, a central Minnesota organic egg producer, is charged with three misdemeanor counts that include handling adulterated food, distributing unpasteurized milk, and not possessing a food handler’s license. Minnesota law does not allow the sale of raw milk directly to consumers from the farm where it is produced.

On September 19, a Hennepin County jury began their deliberations in the case. After ninety minutes behind closed doors, the jurors recessed for the day.

Schlangen has contended that he does not sell milk. He says that his role is the operator of a private buying club that distributes the milk to the members of the group that mainly resides in the Twin Cities area. He said he is just the delivery guy and that the members he delivers to lease the cows from Amish farmers.

However, the Agriculture Department says the state’s restrictions on raw milk sales are a must to protect the public from deadly diseases.

This presents a large rift between groups that state raw milk provides health benefits that their families would not get due to the pasteurization process killing beneficial bacteria, nutrients, and enzymes. Allergy relief and the prevention of certain diseases are touted as two of the benefits. State officials, on the other hand, state that raw milk can carry dangerous pathogens that can lead to salmonella, E. coli, and listeria.

Schlangen’s attorney states that he does not operate a business, so he is not doing anything illegal. He contends that the group is a voluntary association of people who share food with one another. He said this is not a reason for Schlangen to have a food handler’s license and that the state law does not apply to him.

While it appears no one has become ill within the food sharing group, those on the other side of the argument state that those who would become sick could hold Schlangen and all parties involved responsible for the debilitating illnesses that result from unpasteurized milk.

The state is requesting a guilty verdict on all counts with a maximum penalty of $1,000 in fines and 90 days in jail.

It is time to check the ricotta cheese in your refrigerator if you have yet to use it or already disposed of it because you heard about this latest recall. As of September 12, 14 people had been affected in 11 states and this includes three fatalities due to Listeria that has been linked to imported ricotta salata cheese, according to the CDC website.

Forever Cheese Inc. voluntarily recalled a single lot of its Frescolina ricotta salata cheese on September 10 due to Listeria contamination.

Listeria is a foodborne bacterial illness that can sometimes be very severe. Some individuals may experience the typical symptoms of food poisoning, while others become very ill and can die from the bacteria. The CDC was able to quickly trace back the source of the bacteria that made 14 people very ill. All of the victims said that they consumed the cheese before becoming sick. The FDA has even been able to identify the exact strain of Listeria involved by testing an uncut sample of the cheese.

The cheese was sold to distributors that services restaurants in approximately 19 states and the contaminated units were shipped between June 20th and August 9. The lot number of the packages is T9425 with production code 441202. The packages contain one or both of these numbers.

Any remaining cheese should be discarded. This is especially important for pregnant women where Listeria can be very dangerous to the fetus. It is also potentially fatal for those with weakened immune systems, children, and older adults.

So far, there has been only one case in Minnesota of an individual becoming sick with 9 other states sharing the remaining 13 victims. All 14 of the individuals had to be hospitalized. Four of them were pregnant with two of them being newborns. The remaining patients were ages 56 to 87.

While this is a small number compared to the 800 cases of Listeria confirmed in laboratories throughout the United States, the fatality rate can be quite high.

Foods that have been linked to previous outbreaks include sprouts, cantaloupe, Mexican-style soft cheeses, celery, and ready-to-eat deli meat.

If you have consumed cheese not knowing that it was contaminated, you may be eligible for compensation. To learn more, contact a personal injury lawyer in Minneapolis at TSR Injury Law for your free consultation. Ph: (612) TSR-TIME.
