I was born in 1958 and exposed to a drug which originally marketed under the the name Thalidamide,but was administered in this country as Kevadon.It caused me to be born with a birth defect to my hands.I was told that there is a law firm that has a list of the doctors who prescibed the medication to women who were experiencing morning sickness while pregnant.Unfortunately for me the hospital I was born in (Provident-Baltimore City)destroyed all records.Although I'm now 49 yrs old I'm still experiencing problems.There also seems to be the matter of the statue of limitations.But I wouldn't have known about the drug Kevadon if it were not for my research into the drug Thalimide which was not suppose to be marketed in this country.I have no medical insurance to help me seek the medical attention I need with the current problems I'm having with my right hand.Do I have any way to compensated?Please if there's anyone who can help me let me know.

Here is a link you might want to look at: http://www.thalidomide.ca/

Here is a lawyer that might be able to steer you in the right direction: http://www.wllc.com/ They have experience with these cases.

The hospital might be worried about getting sued so it is no wonder they can't find the medical records. This might be of help. http://thalidomide.ca/en/information/i_think_i_am_a_victim.html
