EZELL, Judge.

Janell Ernst appeals a jury verdict which found that Dr. Flynn Taylor did not breach the standard of care in his treatment of her. She alleges that Dr. Taylor unnecessarily placed a cast on her left arm in an inordinately tight manner, causing a condition called reflex sympathetic dystrophy in her left arm. She also appeals rulings by the trial court which allowed testimony she claims should not have been admitted.
