Some Help With Autopsy Report Terminology?

Question by Shannon: Some help with autopsy report terminology?
Great friend of mine recently passed. Today I got a copy of the autopsy report. I don’t understand some of it. Her cause of death was ruled an accident and from poly substance toxicity. I’m assuming an overdose is what that means. The levels of methadone in her system was 710ng/ml and alprazolam was 230 ng/mL. are those high amounts by themselves or are they small amounts that were lethal when mixed?
Also, said her brain had “changes in global ischemia” what does this mean?
Finally, it said “severe pulmonary congestion – white frothy foam present in airway” what does that mean in Layman’s terms? So those are all my questions. Thank you to whoever takes the time to answer.

Can You Sue a Methadone Clinic if They Overdose You?

Question by Lady Blue: Can you sue a methadone clinic if they overdose you?
A methadone clinic overdosed me. I was honest about my drug intake and they gave me too much methadone. As a result, I was in a coma for thirty days. Can I pursue this legally and sue the clinic for what they did to me or make them change their policy. Please help me with the law steps I must take in this situation. Thank you so much. Peace.

P.s if I win the lawsuit whoever gives me the best steps as to how to go about this, whoever I choose as best answer will get 10% of the money I win and obviously ten points for answering the question right. Thanks
