NSF: One patient's suffering caused by gadolinium

Read the story from this link about one man's battle with Nephrogenic Systemic Fibrosis (NSF) and what he had to go through for MONTHS to get proper diagnosis and treatment.

It now affects all of his joints and he can no longer walk. NSF caused by gadolinium contrast MRI dyes freezes joints into a rigid state (far worse than we actually believed).

Now that we are seeing so many cases based upon the affects of gadolinium used as a contrast agent in MRI scans, isn't it time we took legal action to counter the financial affects that patients suffer from as well? Consider what happened in this case to this patient because of gadolinium...

As many people know, those who undergo MRI procedures often take gadolinium, a rare-earth metal that enhances MRI images. Since 1997, a growing number of patients with kidney disorders who have taken gadolinium have reported a serious, sometimes fatal condition called nephrogenic systemic fibrosis (NSF) or nephrogenic fibrosing dermopathy (NFD). People suffering from NSF/NFD experience a gradual tightening of the skin and connective tissue. NSF/NFD can lead to extreme pain, paralysis, and even death.

You can obtain a free legal consultation and or learn more about gadolinium and NSF at www.gadoliniumlawyers.net. The damaging and potentially fatal side effects of gadolinium mean that you deserve an in-depth legal review.
