Also, this isn't the woman's first go around with viral fame.
She had another video that went viral where she said she was scammed $3K from Planet Fitness and she wanted to sue them as well.
She's also an actress. So there's that.
Per highlighted...my point entirely.
This is a degenerate gambler trying to buy a winning ticket in what I call The Dark Lottery of torts.
I was in pain, I was hysterical, and that doctor should have known what that medicine would do to my baby...and now, Your Honor, I have this two headed mutant and $27 bazillion gajillion in child care costs, plus, I am pretty sure my pharmaceutically altered demon spawn is mind controlling me...sob sob gasp sob...that doctor should have known better...and nothing can ease my suffering...except maybe $27 bazillion gajillion.
Tell us why the doc couldn't ask her to sign a waiver saying she understood the risks. Anyone who goes for surgery signs such a waiver saying they understand the risks. Why would this be different?
How many times are you going to bring this up? Waivers don't mean much in medicine.
Good post........a couple of points. For a headache or pain management doc. the educational progression is roughly this.
4 years college (it's possible but unusual to win a medical school seat without a degree tho.)
4 years medical school
3 years neurology residency
1, 2, or 3 years headache or pain management fellowship
Thanks for additional detail.
Bottom line, not an education you'd be interested in throwing away on a lunatic who is clearly looking for someone to sue.

There's another video where the content is: "Me on my own private island after I sue mean doctors"
So yeah.
The more I go down her tik tok/internet rabbit hole, the more my gut reaction of her being a lunatic is dead on accurate.

My wife was a nurse for 39 years. Dark Lotto contestants, degenerate drug addicts, and various other whack-a-doodles were commonplace elements in any given week.
Being a prescribing physician carries crazy responsibility, accountability and liability...and that's assuming the patient told you 100% truth, 100% medical history, and DOESN'T want to sue you. This crazy chick? If I am neurologist, seeing her in the waiting room means I am already at no on prescribing anything beyond baby aspirin.

And, according to her she was already on meds that could possibly cause birth defects.
I have cluster headaches. Have been to multiple headache specialists and they all have recommended the same 2 things for dealing with a headache (in the moment it's happening). Imitrex auto injector is one, and high flow oxygen is the other. Both have been very effective for me. I'd bet dollars to donuts it's the Imitrex he wouldn't give her. My wife takes Imitrex pills for migraines, and couldn't take them or most other migraine meds while she was pregnant.
Opioids are usually not prescribed for cluster headaches because orally they don't act quickly enough, aren't very effective (pain is so severe that you'd have to be basically going unconscious from pain meds to get relief), and of course the addiction/dependency concerns.
The one saving grace with cluster headaches is that while they are extremely severe, they are usually short lived (when compared to migraines or other chronic headaches). Common presentation is they come on fast then are gone in 30-90min. But that means any treatment has to be very fast acting.
Most other countries offer complementary treatments that are covered by national health insurance/socialized medicine. Here in the US, you can get a prescription for opioids cheaper than a single PT, chiropractic, acupuncture, or OMT appointment, for example. If they are covered, the copay is still high (I pay $40 for one PT visit and know others that pay $60) and you are limited to a set number each year. In many cases people WANT to try other things, but can’t afford them. In socialized medicine, there is an incentive to keep people from coming back. That doesn’t exist in a for-profit system like we often have here.
Most countries in Europe will give you a Rx for paracetamol if you complain you're in pain, not an opioid. Opioids are cheap, they can give them out as cheaply as paracetamol, they don't. The reason is opioids kill people obviously and turn people with certain proclivities into addicts.
I am sticking with "drug seeking lunatic" until I hear the neurologist's side of things. Not Tara's version of their doctor, but the doctor/hospital directly.
Here's one obvious goof in her story - as she herself points out, the hospital was secular/non-religious, and NY state is one of the several "women's right to choose" utopias with unrestricted access to do whatever the heck you want to an unborn, probably with generous taxpayer support. Then she claims that the doctor - in abortion happy NY and the non-religious hospital - said his explicit reason for saying no was because of Roe being overturned. That is contradictory on the face of it. The doctor can be heard referencing recent changes in the legislative environment causing uncertainty, but as part of a discussion on insurance.
She admits that the doctor said insurance will not cover the drug in question specifically because it causes birth defects. Her retort is "well this other med I am on causes them too, so?" That is not a valid defense in a court of law when that doctor is the defendant in her virtually guaranteed civil suit. If insurance won't cover the cost of it, chances are real good his malpractice insurance won't protect him from prescribing it, and probably for the same reason - it causes birth defects.
Find another neurologist. All the simps in the comments section on her videos recommended a bunch. Choose one.
