Avatar n tn I want to know how to join the class action against Victoria Secrets. I have experinced this and my doctors did not know what was causing it. It stopped when I changed bras.
Avatar n tn How do I joined the class action suit against Victoria Secret for these rashes from the "Sexy" bras which I loved and brought 2 at once the week they came out with them? I knew it was the bras that I had recently purchased as I alternated between other types of VS bras that didn't do it. I always thought it was the dye in the bras and that's what I told my doctor who prescribed anti fungus medication. Formaldyhyde would be the last thing I would think.
Avatar f tn What are the odds of those of us that are suffering from from tooth decay and paying outrageously for doctors appointments, prescriptions, and now dentists and dental bills, what do we need or have to do to begin a class action lawsuit? Four members of my family have been on subutex for about 6 years some for general pain and some for addiction and we all have the same issues with decaying teeth and such. Our doctor has no means of tapering us off but we all have started ourselves.
Avatar f tn IS ANY ONE KHOWS A CLASS ACTION LAW SUIT AGAINST THE COMPANY WHO MAKES DENTAL IMPLANT THAT JUNK HAS MANY SIDE EFFECTS THAT MUST BE DISCUSSED WITH THE PATIENTS. INCLUDING CAUSING AUTO IMMUNE DISEASE . BUT MANY DENTISTS EITHER ARE NOT AWARE OF IT OR DENY IT. I HAD TWO DENTAL IMPLANTS. FINALLY I REALIZE THE BEST THING TO GET RID OF THEM IS GOING OVERSEAS WHICH I DID. I TOLD THE DENTIS I DON'T WANT TO LIVE WITH THESE IMPLANTS ANY MORE I WOULD RATHER DIE THAN LIVING WITH THEM.
Avatar n tn [2] A series of small-scale studies completed in Germany found that H. procumbens was indistinguishable from Vioxx in the treatment of chronic low back pain,[3] and was well-tolerated after more than four years of treatment of H. procumbens alone.[4] H. procumbens also seems efficacious in the treatment of arthritis-caused hip and knee pain.
Avatar n tn I would like to see a picture of the rash so that I can see if it is the same as mine. Red with heat, rising on the skin, and itches especially when, I'm working and get sweaty.
Avatar f tn Has there been a class action lawsuit for the recall of contaminated lot number in the fall of 2017 ?
Avatar f tn PSI-7977 was granted the fast track designation primarily due to the need for HCV treatments with novel mechanisms of action, oral administration, different resistance profiles and improved safety and efficacy over the existing standard of care for both treatment-naive and treatment-experienced patients. "The FDA's fast track designation for PSI-7977 acknowledges the urgent need for new HCV drugs," stated Dr. Michael Rogers, Pharmasset's Chief Development Officer.
334847 tn?1206530240 m not looking in the right place), but anyhow - I came by to see if anyone had posted on the class action law suit that's been filed against Vertex (on behalf of investors / stock holders). Was just wondering - have you all heard this? I've gotten several news alerts on it in the last several days. Thought some here might be interested. You can read the complaint filed by going to the several law firms representing the plaintiffs if you're interested in seeing it.
Avatar f tn Wow! I can't believe I stumbled on this information. I have been going crazy for the past 6 months trying to figure out why my breasts have had a rash, they are constantly itchy and blotchy. I just figureed it was dry skin, new detergent, cream...trying everything, but nothing worked. How horrifying to find out there may be formaldehyde in the bras. I've never been part of a class action lawsuit, but I will definitely participate in this one if it comes to fruition....
Avatar f tn I also would like information on this class action lawsuit. I am always itchy, I have contributed it dry skin. I have also had sores that have left me with scars. Never thought and my Dr. never mentioned it could be my bra. I am faithful to my VS body by Victoria!
Avatar m tn Dear p1954 Carvedilol belongs to a class of drugs called beta blockers. It is responsible for inhibition of beta receptors present ubiquitously on the heart muscle. By blocking these receptors, it helps prevent the effects of adrenaline/noradrenaline on the heart thereby maintaining a low heart rate and reducing the energy expended by the heart per beat.
Avatar f tn I would like more information on how to join the class action suit. If anyone has any info on how to get into this Class Action Suit, please let me know, it would be greatly appreciated.
Avatar m tn This group of NSAIDs has the advantage of having fewer gastrointestinal side effects – less abdominal discomfort and less risk of gastrointestinal bleeding, than conventional NSAIDs. There are three different COX-2 inhibitors currently available to the public– Vioxx, Celebrex and Bextra. COX-2 inhibitors have been associated with some liver dysfunction, although not as commonly as other NSAIDs. Recently, Vioxx has been removed from the market due to heart-related problems.
Avatar m tn Acorn hasn't been active on the forum since this thread was posted. You might do a google search for a class action suit stemming from the use of Forteo injections.
773755 tn?1328119777 That BonSoy issue was over a year ago. They have finally got it straight and the class action is from that time. Bon Soy no longer have high levels of iodine, thank goodness! The Dept of Health immediately issued an investigation into all soy products and found that Bon Soy was the only one with such high iodine. I have been following this since day one.
Avatar m tn It appears to be a web site to help attorneys soliciting cases to help with their class action suits against device companies. Attorneys will make money. Patients won't benifit much in my opinion. Those individuals with a legitimate claim will be served by the usual medical legal process and not by an attempt to collect money from companies with class action suits. This answer represents my opinion and in no way reflects Medhelp in any way.
Avatar n tn But this time I am going to ask the GP to try for Gout immediately (VIOXX and/or Allopurinol for Uric Acid/Gout). I notice it seems to reoccur every 5 years. Advice appreciated?
Avatar n tn Hi, I would like to know how to join the class action lawsuit case against Victoria's Secret. I have been to a dermatologist and an internist over this and my underwire area is still red and itchy. Thank you.
Avatar n tn Ashley, I have had the same problem since using Victoria Secret bras as so many others. Did you get a response on how to get involved with the class action law suit and if so what steps can I take?
Avatar n tn Can you tell me if the Tram Flap Reconstruction problems that I hear about all over the internet be associated with the Pelvic Mesh class action lawsuit. Thousands of women have gone through the same kind of injuries and side effects as the women who have undergone the Hernia Mesh, Transvaginal Mesh, and Abdominal Mesh surgical procedure. This reconstruction has put women lives in danger and should be label an extreme danger to women lives.
