There is no impossibility actually. But if you are the only one who would be doing this, the Court may view your case as an isolated one. A medical case takes a while to prove because clinical trials are not just time-consuming but very expensive - consider the number of tests, clinical evaluations, etc. That’s why drug-related complaints are better taken as class-suits. The best agency to approach is the US-FDA. Write to them and file a self-written report. You may also do your own investigation or perhaps initiate a forum on the web. Try gathering as many people as you can who could be suffering the same or similar symptoms as you say you are getting.
