I had surgery in early January and my provider was paged to come back and see me to discuss my allergies and sensitivities to certain materials, but she never came back due to being busy with resident interviews. I started having allergic reactions from day 4, and despite my body rejecting the staples by two and a half weeks, she wanted to keep them in for three weeks. My skin was ripping, and she told me not to live in the past about her mistakes. What are my next steps to get my incision fixed, despite her causing me a lot of pain, and how can I ensure I'm not left with a disfigured scar and ongoing pain?

I'm in California and living in a house with someone who is very sick in the hospital. His stepson is asking me to leave, claiming I'm not wanted anymore. My children's rooms are needed for a nurse and medical equipment. I'm not married to the person, and I have a part-time job, making it hard to find a decent place to move to. What are my rights and what steps should I take to protect myself from being forced out?
