Medical Negligence - Sueing a Practicioner in QLD?
Has anyone gone down this route at all? Has your case been accepted as a valid case for medical negligence? How did you start the process? Who did you see?

I am flabbergasted!!!! I am still trying to take it in. If they had investigated say in 2011 even then maybe I wouldn't be in the position I am in now with incurable metastatic cancer.
Apparently because I was low risk their feeling it initially & saying it feels like a lymph node is enough to qualify as standard practice never mind the fact it tripled in size & changed shape.
To me & according to what I read it is delayed diagnosis & failing to investigate.
SHOCKED!!
