I flew down to LA last week for a follow-up with my surgeon. I spent way too much time and money to find out nothing new!
Workers comp is still denying PT, so my understanding is that I'll be limping into 2010.
After which, my Doc will give worker's comp his final report.
Worker's comp will then try to calculate a disability % and try to "settle" with me. Im frustrated and feel powerless.
Anyone else have experience with worker's comp and disability prognoses?

I had a workman's comp claim about 14 years ago, compressed vertebrae in my upper back due to a car accident while working. When the doctor gave the final report, she determined the disability %. Then the insurance company added up the $ for medical, missing work, etc and gave me a settlement amount. The one thing I didn't do was keep going back to the doctor every year to keep the claim open for future problems (look into this), I have since had problems my upper back and I could have had workman's comp paying for part of this instead of my insurance (with the deductables).
Good luck.
Sandy
