Q: Do I have a claim against a dr for removing a rib without putting in my record in Illinois, and go to Mayo in Minneapoli
and find out that is why I am having all the pain under my right breast/rib, that has large protusion with pain
A:
I'm sorry for your pain and ordeal. Unfortunately, it would be difficult for a med mal attorney to make an evaluation based on these limited facts. As a starting point, you could contact an Illinois med mal attorney. Many offer free initial consults. If they felt that your matter warranted review as to its merits as a med mal case, they could request your hospital records and review them with a medical professional. Good luck
