    Description of Event or Problem · 1

    GREETINGS! BECAUSE OF 2 BLOOD CLOTS, A "BARD" MERIDIAN VENA CAVA FILTER WAS PLACED IN ME THROUGH MY JUGULAR VEIN ON (B)(6) 2014, AT (B)(6) HOSPITAL ( BY DR. (B)(6). IT HAS COME TO MY ATTENTION THAT THIS PARTICULAR "BARD FILTER" HAS A HISTORY OF MALFUNCTIONING SINCE 2005 THAT THE FDA DID NOT KNOW ABOUT. THIS MALFUNCTIONING, LIFE THREATENING DEVICE, HAD ME SO STRESSED OUT SINCE HEARING ABOUT ITS MALFUNCTIONING HISTORY. I FINALLY HAD IT REMOVED ON (B)(6) 2016. I HAD SEVERE MENTAL ANXIETY IN THE MONTHS BEFORE WAITING TO HAVE IT REMOVED, IN FEAR OF NOT IF IT WOULD BREAK, BUT WHEN IT WOULD BREAK AND POSSIBLY CAUSE A MASSIVE HEART ATTACK AND/OR STROKE. PLEASE HELP. COULD YOU REFER ME TO AN ATTORNEY. I CANNOT CALL, I MUST HAVE ADDRESSES. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME AND CONSIDERATION IN THIS MATTER, AND I LOOK FORWARD TO YOUR REPLY.
