Is this considered Medical Malpractice?

I will try make this short cut to point- I was scheduled for surgery the Doctors office told me the hospital would call me for pre -opt, well they never did, I waited for the last working day before surgery and call pre-registeration dept. she replied "honey u r not scheduled for surgery" I was told to call the doctors office back - they resubmitted my pre opt because the hospital lost it. I went for pre-opt the fri before my surgery on mon. Everyone i cam in contact with i stressed i wanted to talk to the anesthesiologist before surgery i had a sezure due to the anestia a couple of years ago at prior surgery at diff hospital. the nurse and staff assured me i would get to talk to the anesthesiologist before surgery this was also noted on my paper work at the pre-opt testing- they also said i had a fever my surgery may cancled for this reason... well before i left the hospital i asked again when do i get to talk to the anesthesiologist the nurse told me oh we do things different here you will get to talkk to him the day of your surgery before u have the procudure, at this time my mother heard this also. Even though i was uneasy about having the surgery due to the fact i did not get to talk to the anesthesiologist i still put trust into my doctor and the hospital that they would take care of me despite what had taken place earlier. This is the "kicker" I went in for surgery my family was there i told the nurses that i was very sick nausea, migraine didnt fell well, asked again when do i get to talk to the anesthesiologist? they gave me medication did not help. While they were rolling me down the hall to get preped for surgery a nurse came running down the hall and said i forgot to give u this mecidine, I felt a little uneasy. While i was being preped the nurse tried to start the IV she sticked my in the arm twice, then moves to my hand tries 3 more times then she said iam going to use ur other hand but i can not use numbing stuff. where she sticked me 2 more times wiggled the neddle in.....I continued to ask for the anesthesiologist several more times and told the nurse that i am sill very sick naused and had bad head ache, After being back there i could feel like the IV was making me groggy still verry sick going past the nausea stage, I was trying to stay awake wanting to talk to the anesthesiologist..... finally he came by I told him my concerens, I asked if he could call another hospital that i had surgery at did not have a problem with the anesthia and give that kind to me and went on to explain what the other anesthesiologist said, The anesthesiologist leaned over my bed his face in mine we were nose to nose hes said "You come in here the day u have surgery and want me to call another hospital and find out what u were given - because u had a siezure - well what made u think that u had a siezure did you urinate on your self did u defacate on your self , i was trying to catch my breath to anwser him due to the fact i was groggy and nauseated, sick I told him the anesthesiologist at the hospital told me i had a siezure due to the fact they gave me the wrong medication since i have MPV heart conditon, these were his words not mine, I told him i was scared did not want this to happen to me again he blarred at me againg in a hatfule tone said " u come in here the day of surery and want me to call another hospital and get special treatment ..Well u r no more special or different than anyone else back here or deserve any special treatment if there is a drug that u dont want then u can let me know i will be happy to give it to u, but u r not going to come in her at the last minute and expect me to call another hospital to find out what u were given!" I was so upset I was crying couldnt breath chest was hurting, i was thinking oh my god i have just pissed off the anesthesiologist he is going to freaking kill me! while i was sobbing i told him i was getting sick, i was about to throw-up he was still rambling at me popping off to the point i tried to raise my hand i said to him please leave, leave me along! he was still in my face untill 4 other nurses came to the foot of my bed and said she hasnt signed this she needs to sign this realease,, i was soo sick, groggy one nurse held the folder with the release form and another held her and over mine to help me sign my name since i could not do it by my self i rember my name be cross ways on the form, at this time none of those nurses offed to help me with what they had seen and heard, the only nurse to the side of my tried to console me and said dont be so upset sometimes he get like that she patted me on my sholder and got me a bed pan and wash cloth. Then oh my god out of nowhere that nut came back and leaned in my face aging said if u know what medicine you want i will be happy to give it to u since u dont know i will have to use what i know to use .. he tried to keep talking again i was was even more stressed wanted to just get up and leave but i couldnt i felt traped , tucked tight in bed with wires IVS running everywhere and groggy i couldnt get up and i was soo sick and still on the verge of throwing -up .. i told him again please leave me along just go away get out of my face... I told the nurse i wanted to leave please let me go i was begging take my back to my family.. I was so scared that i got ahold of a nut that hides in the hospital take OD's people that gets kicks.. I told the nurse i wanted to talk to my doctor before surgery... then the next thing i rember i was out never saw my doctor before surgery woke up to get 2 shots of moraphine then when i could go back to my waiting room the nurse told me i was too sick for company left me in the waiting room by my self , at this time i was still very sick i asked for nausea medication was denied , i even got up to throw -up by myself pulling the Iv bag with me and fell in the bathroom floor , i crawled back to bed ask and told the nurse about being sick she gave me a sweet sprite and *******s - which came back up. she finally let my husband come back for 2 min told him to help me get dressed then she told my husband to get my parents while he left the nurse got the wheel chair even though i repeatedly told her i was sick and nausuated and had head ache- still no response she said u r free to go by the time my parents came to see me - my mother told the nurse i look very sick should i be leaving she said she's fine! asked another nurse to roll me out at this time i was so weak and sick i couldnt even talk at this time i just wanted to go home get as far away as i can. I wrote a letter to my doctor about how i was treated and also to the hospital. the hospitals HR staff was just very rude to me and my mother and did nothing about the situation. well i have been going for 2 years to that hospital for treatments 6 months for 1 week then i have continued for treatment every 2 weeks, everytime i wall through those doors i crenge at the thoughts of what i went through and i pray i do not have to have sugery at that hospital ever again.. I would like to know if there is any thing that can be done about the way i was treated by the hospitals staff and the anesthesiologist , should i be compensated for the horror i had no choice but to endure? Should or can they be acountible for what they done or simpley do they just get away with it... Please advise the thoughts of this happening to a child or eldery person makes me crenge....

It is certainly possible you have a case based on what you say here; you should take a brief description of these events as well as your medical records to a malpractice attorney and see if the attorney thinks you have a claim; often you need to contact several attorneys to find one to take the case; the review of your case and records is often free and then they will normally take the case on a contingency fee basis if they think you can win; you would pay only if they collect for you.

Thank You for responding, There are a few more details of how I was treated by this Hospital, I have even called several people at this hospital to get anwsers on how i was treated and they never call me back. I have documention noted on hospital records where i tried several times to talk to the anesthesiologis, and I have copies of my records and documention on everything.
Do you know of a firm that may be interested in persuing this if there is a case,the hospital is located in Tennessee?
