One year ago I was in an auto accident. My friend was driving apparently to slow for the driver behind us and was we started to pull into a parking lot they decided to speed up and try to pass us by using the sidewalk. We were hit at my door and I was turned looking at my friend in the back seat. The police cited her and her ins has accepted 100% fault. I went to the ER for head (I hit the door window) and neck pain and fallowed up with my doc. Since then I have had 3 months PT (he said he could not fix me) and still see the chiro. I had 2 MRI, CAT and several x-rays. I was placed on medications including: Valium, Percocet and Oxycodone initially but after a week asked for something weaker and went to hydrocodone which still left me sleepy so I went to IBfrofin 800, meloxican and Skelaxin. Seen a back specialist too. All agree with my doctor that my SI joint is messed up and my chiro put my back at 20% permanently damaged and will need to see him once a month forever My bills are about 9,000. I don’t want a lawyer to take money from my pain so I don’t want to have one. Now that it has been a year and my doctors say I am as good as I am going to get I was to settle. What should I do? Is there a form I can give my doctors to fill out?

Also I was 12 weeks pregnant and ended up having him at 22 weeks in which he died right after birth. With everything that happen the month after and all the medications could this have been a cause? My doctor that delivered him says he can’t tell me the reason I went into early labor. I was on seasonal and didn’t know I was pregnant till 16 weeks .
Sorry I was not clear, I just mentioned I was turned talking to my friend in the back because my spine was twisted when I was hit and injured. The Lady that hit us was faulted 100%, my friends in the car had nothing to do with my injures and even if they did I would never sue my friends.
