my angigram went wrong

When l had an angiogram, l ended up with a large blood clot, in the top of my leg, which l later had to have removed, in order to save my life. Can l take any action against the person that did the original angiogram?

It's too bad what happened to you, but assuming you recovered, heave a sigh of relief and be happy.  Another one of the risks of an angiogram is death.
