MY CAREER ENDED OVER 4 YEARS AGO WHEN I HAD A HEART ATTACK DUE TO THE PILL TAKEN FOR BACK PAIN. I HAVE 3 STENTS AS A RESULT OF THIS MEDICATION AND HOPE THAT THE SETTLEMENT WILL BE MADE SOON AS I HAVE LIMITED FUNDS TO SURVIVE ON. IT IS A MISFORTUNE FOR ALL OF US THAT HAVE TO UNDERGO SUCH SETBACKS DUE TO THE NEGLIGENCE OF THE PHARMACEUTICAL COMPANY MARKETING THIS PRODUCT AS WELL AS PUSHING IT BY THE DRUG REPRESENTATIVES. WE AND THE PHYSICIANS NEED TO BETTER ACQUAINT OURSELVES WITH THE PRODUCTS MARKETED BY THE PHARMACEUTICAL COMPANIES PRIOR TO TAKING THEM AS PRESCRIBED. WE NEED TO BE MORE RESPONSIBLE. DOES ANYONE KNOW ANY TYPE OF SETTLEMENT STRUCTURE AND TIMELINE AS TO WHEN THE FUNDING WILL BE DISBURSED? SURE HOPE SOMEONE KNOWS ANYTHING IN REGARDS TO THE QUESTIONS I HAVE.
