Yaz Lawsuit Filed Over Girl’s Gallbladder Removal
By Kimberly Mirando

Texas residents Ed and Elaine Cavazos filed the Yaz injury lawsuit against Bayer on August 15, 2012, just days before their daughter’s sweet 16 birthday. According to the lawsuit, the minor girl was prescribed Yaz when she was about 14 years old and subsequently developed gallbladder disease. On April 15, 2002, her condition became so severe that she was forced to undergo emergency gallbladder removal surgery. Now that she no longer has a gallbladder, the girl must endure ongoing medical treatments and monitoring for the rest of her life to prevent kidney and liver ailments. Her Yaz injury lawsuit is seeking compensatory and punitive damages to cover these medical expenses, as well as to compensate her for her physical and emotional pain.

I was wondering if the suit against Yas/Yasmin Beyaz is still going on, I was on this medication and my gallbladder is now only working at 2% with no gallstones to be seen. Please let me know if I may still get in on this Top Class Action Suit.
Thank you
