What is a medical misdiagnosis claim?
A medical misdiagnosis claim is essentially where you claim for financial compensation because of a medical misdiagnosis you have received. A claim for medical misdiagnosis compensation, is made using a specialist solicitor that handles medical negligence compensation claims.
Broadly speaking, there are three types of medical misdiagnosis claims:
Incorrect diagnosis claim- the most obvious type of misdiagnosis, is where a medical professional takes note of your symptoms, but diagnoses them as the incorrect medical condition
Missed diagnosis claim- this occurs when a medical professional fails to diagnose any problem, despite you presenting recognised symptoms that should have required further testing or investigation
Delayed diagnosis claim- where, through no fault of your own, your diagnosis is delayed, where appointments are pushed back and scans are not conducted in the necessary time-frame
What conditions are commonly misdiagnosed?
Technically speaking, a medical misdiagnosis claim can be made for any medical condition that is misdiagnosed due to negligence on behalf of a medical professional.
Some of the most commonly misdiagnosed medical conditions include:
Diabetes- displaying a wide variety of symptoms, diabetes is often misdiagnosed as a UTI or another viral infection, and a plasma glucose test is necessary to accurately diagnosis patients displaying symptoms of diabetes
Cauda Equina Syndrome- requiring immediate surgery to prevent spinal discs pushing down on nerves, CES is regularly misdiagnosed under the NHS, as seen here
Appendicitis- When people suffer from appendicitis, they usually need emergency surgery to remove the appendix. Common symptoms include pain in the right abdomen, accompanied by vomiting or diarrhoea, and these should be acted on quickly by a medical professional
Meningitis- common symptoms of meningitis include fever accompanied by a non-blanching rash and vomiting/back pain. If a GP or A&E doctor failed to recognise these symptoms, you could make a medical misdiagnosis claim
This list is far from comprehensive, and pretty much any illness or medical condition can be misdiagnosed. If you have been subject to a medical misdiagnosis of any kind, and have suffered from further injury or illness as a result, then get in touch with our medical negligence solicitors today about making a NO WIN NO FEE claim.

What causes medical misdiagnosis?
A claim for medical misdiagnosis often results when a medical practitioner such as a GP, Dentist, or Surgeon breaks guidelines that they must follow.
Some of these mistakes and errors include:
Failure to request necessary scans- such as X-rays or MRI scans, despite the patient showing symptoms requiring them
Symptoms not being listened to properly
Misinterpreted scans- where these scans or tests are carried out but the results are misread
Delays in the diagnosis process- where scans, tests, and follow up appointments are not carried out within necessary time-frames
If you believe that your GP, Dentist, or another medical professional has let you down, or not listened to you about your symptoms, then get in touch with our specialist team of solicitors as soon as possible to discuss how we can help you with your medical misdiagnosis claim.

How long do I have to make a medical misdiagnosis claim?
Usually, subject to the Limitation Act of 1980, you have 3 years from the date of the medical misdiagnosis, to make a claim for financial compensation.
If you are making a medical misdiagnosis claim on behalf of your child, you have up to the date of their 18th birthday to make a claim, after which point they have 3 years, or until their 21st birthday, to make the claim for themselves.
Medical misdiagnosis claims- a case study:
Recently, MG Legal’s specialist Medical Misdiagnosis Solicitors were approached by Mrs P, who was unfortunate enough for her medical condition to have been misdiagnosed by the Accident and Emergency Department of her local hospital. On several occasions, Mrs P attended the local A&E department complaining of severe abdominal pain. On each occasion, she attended with the same complaint and each time, Mrs P was sent home without any form of test or investigation. Each time Mrs P was diagnosed as having a Urinary Tract Infection (UTI).
Despite taking the prescribed medication and showing no improvement and in fact complaining of significantly worsening pain, there was no change in approach by the local A&E department. Eventually, with her pain reaching excruciating levels, and nobody at her local hospital listening to her, Mrs P was taken by a friend to a different Hospital some 25 miles away to their A&E Department. Immediately, Mrs P was diagnosed with advanced Appendicitis, and in fact her appendix had ruptured, causing numerous secondary infections. Mrs P faced a much more complex, open operation with a long, slow road to recovery instead of having a simple, keyhole procedure with a recovery time of a couple of weeks.
Mrs P then approached MG Legal specialist medical misdiagnosis solicitors for help pursuing a medical negligence claim for financial compensation, and we quickly identified the failures on the part of the Consultants at the local A&E Department.
Mrs P received a payment of over £32,000 from the NHS to bring the incident to a close and to allow her to concentrate on the last steps of her recovery and ultimately, putting the incident behind her.

Epilepsy misdiagnosis claims:
In recent years, concerns over the misdiagnosis rate of epilepsy have grown. Studies have shown that epilepsy misdiagnosis occurs in 23% of adults who seek medical attention with symptoms of epilepsy. According to the same study, 90,000 people have their epilepsy misdiagnosed every year in England. Misdiagnosis of epilepsy is clearly common, and the consequences for the individual can be significant.
Doctors specialising in the diagnosis of epilepsy are experts in spotting the symptoms, and managing the symptoms with the correct treatment after diagnosis. Obtaining an early, and correct diagnosis of epilepsy is vital to treating patients correctly and ensuring the protection of their quality of life.
While there is no one set diagnostic test for epilepsy, if you visit your GP or doctor and show signs that you may have experienced an epileptic seizure, you should be offered a neurological exam, blood test, electroencephalogram, MRI, or a combination of the above. If you or your loved one have suffered from injury or illness due to epilepsy being ignored by a medical professional, epilepsy being misdiagnosed as another condition, or your epilepsy diagnosis being delayed, you could be able to make an epilepsy misdiagnosis claim with our no win no fee medical negligence solicitors today.
