Hospital Medication Error
Vein Necrosis and Permanent Nerve Damage
Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy (RSD)
Champaign County, Illinois
$1.4 Million Settlement
When a client needed help, they turned to Spiros Law for answers and accountability.
As a result, our legal team secured a $1,400,000 personal injury settlement in Champaign County, the largest reported injury payout involving Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy (RSD) in the area. The settlement was obtained on behalf of a 42-year-old woman who suffered devastating injuries after being given the wrong medication at a hospital.
This serious medical error caused vein necrosis, permanent nerve damage, and severe chronic pain, ultimately leading to a diagnosis of Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy (RSD), also known as Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS) — a life-altering condition known for ongoing, debilitating pain and loss of function. Evidence in the case clearly established how the medication mistake triggered the injury progression and permanently affected the client’s daily life, independence, and ability to work.
After a thorough evaluation of medical records, future care needs, and long-term damages, the case was resolved through a $1.4 million injury payout, reflecting the full scope of harm caused by the hospital’s negligence. This result highlights the importance of pursuing a Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy lawsuit when preventable medical mistakes lead to permanent injury.
