With my situation should I sue my Chiropractor?

I got rear ended Feb 2010. Went to chiropractor for two months she released me even though I told her I still had pain. I settled the wreck. I then went back to Chiro and paid her with my own money after settlement with issues. I told her when neck would move certain ways or even pop I felt sharp pain all the way down my right side of my body. She kept adjusting my neck and told me it was simple imflammation. I started seeing family doctor who sent me to back doctor or ordered MRI. It showed disc sitting against my spinal cord and I had immediate surgery to have it removed before I got paralyzed. With surgery I lost my job because I did not heal in two weeks (worked for small company under 50 emplloyees that doesnt follow FMLA rules, doesnt have to) .... Even The lawyer who handled my wreck asked how the chiropractor let me go if I still said I had pain and never ordered MRI. Now I am not sure if he will take the case against her because she refers lots of car accident victims his way. I have never been in a wreck or sued before but this seems to have taken a bit of my life away that possibly could have been prevented or done alot sooner (I got fired because its tax season and I work for an accountant, that being said if I was to have this caught over the spring whne this first happened I possibly would still have my job and/or different surgery outcome?) All serious replys only please.
