Statute of limitations on Medical cases?

ok, i know in AR(my state) the statute of limitations is 2 years.

In November 2005 i had an IUD inserted, by a med student(of which i was not informed) and she didn't check my uterus. She pushed the IUD straight through my uterus to my stomach(which had to be surgically removed in March 2007) Then i got pregnant, and had a baby in December. in January, i found out that my uterus was tilted backwards...

SO! my question is since i just found out about my uterus being tilted and would the statute of limitations start from when i found out about it(Jan 2008), or would it start from when the IUD was inserted(Nov 2005)?

    Normally, it's from the time you found out about it.
