Memphis Va Medical Center torture/ patient abuse Memphis Tennessee

Feb.16,2006 I was admitted to the hospital for drug overdose.I regained conciousness as a nurse was sticking me with an IV.I yanked out the catheter and tried to get off the gurney.I blacked out.When I regained conciousness I was in bed with a nurse sitting aside the bed.Then I was put in a wheelchair,the nurse told me to stand,she told me to take off my clothes,she asked nurse Larry to look at my injuries,he walked around me.I had a hole in my left leg the size of a golf ball,a swollen right knee the size of a grapefruit,I was unable to walk.I had severe burns on my back,hips,face,and part of my ear was burned off, from what I assume was a tazer/stun gun.I have no memory of how these injuries occured.I was refused pain medication.I weighed 220 pounds when admitted and 175 when discharged 2 weeks later.I then went to Florida and had to be admitted to the W.Palm VA hospital for 2 more weeks for leg infection.I will forever bear the scars.
