Woman Sues Over Transvaginal Ultrasound: 'It Felt Like I Was Being Raped'
This is why the scum sucking Rs want it used on women having legal abortions.
When Marianne Keith, 52, went to the hospital with severe abdominal pain in February, the physician recommended that she have a transvaginal ultrasound -- the same procedure doctors use to detect a fetal heartbeat early in a pregnancy -- to diagnose the problem. What ensued, Keith says, was a full hour of brutal physical abuse that left her with internal injuries and recurring nightmares.
"It felt like I was being raped," she told The Huffington Post in an interview. "Like somebody was intentionally hurting me."
Keith has sued the Advocate Condell Medical Center in Libertyville, Ill., where she underwent the procedure, for medical battery. She claims in the lawsuit that the hospital technician "repeatedly jammed the probe in to various internal portions of [her] vagina, including her cervix," for an hour.
