What an unbelievable experience you had! If I were you, I would contact an attorney and sue them. What they did is flat out illegal I know it’s really hard to fight when you don’t feel well and they depend on that but you sound like a fighter so I hope you do. As far as presuming, I don’t presume here in California we seem to have less corrupt systems than you’re facing, and there are rec courses, not to say there isn’t bad people and problems, but since I work in a variety of medical situations, I can tell you that ombudsman and patient advocates do exist some better some worse . I know Oregon is a very pretty place, but I also know the hardship that some people face their trying to get services. Good luck.

It was only about the end of some of the worst medical care I've received. It takes money to hire attorney's to sue. The risk is all ours, and the costs can be prohibitive. To me, it has only seemed like gambling. Maybe for others, it's not so. My brother had to counter sue someone once, my father hired the attorney, whom he knew, and fronted the costs, because my brother then lived still at home, so it could have come down on my Dad. My brother won, but mostly he won not getting sued himself, or my Dad. I have never been able to communicate past an Attorney's secretary, to get a free appt. The one time I was able to get past one, to sit with a Legal Aid type one, he wasn't obligated to take the case, so he didn't. Reality is a hard lesson. So, I moved. I moved out of Oregon completely. Then, got my colonoscopy (9 polyps, all not cancerous) and slowly over time, my health has improved. I am a person of faith.
