My ncm asked my wc dr to put some restrictions on me and my employer is honoring them. I was previously not allowed to work by my employer. I went back and it hurts too much to work. My fingers are still numb and my pain between my shoulders is increasing. Also my headaches are worse. I hid in the bathroom several times each day because it hurts so bad. I made mistakes because the pain is making it hard to think. My lawyer told me to try and get my pain clinic Dr to take me back off work Monday. I tried to find my paper work from my lawyer but it's lost in the move. I had to sell my house because wc pay wasn't reliable. I've been off work since April 30th 2025. Carpal tunnel ulnar nerve compression and a bunch of bulging discs, stenosis, and bone spurs in my neck. I got approved for ssdi in March and it's enough. I'm just worried about the lawyer charging me because I can't handle back to work and im probably going to get fired for being absent

Can you all please look at my comment on the settlement thread? Thanks

How long does sedgewick have to get my myleogram scheduled? The scheduling company texted me to tell them my free times to make my appointment but I have not heard from them since last week ? I have carpal tunnel, ulnar nerve entrapment and c567 stenosis and bulging discs. 22 years factory production work. Thanks for any help and advice

Im 61yo. My ncm had my Dr add restrictions to my off work note. My employer said they would honor them. My podiatrist wrote a note for 40 hours a week because that is all my sore feet allow me to work without extreme pain that pain relievers don't fully relieve. Dr wrote no use of upper right extremity. I've been off work since April 30, 2025. I have been approved for ssd and just got my first payment this April.

My area between my shoulders in my spine hurts constantly and my mris show degenerative disc and stenosis with bulging discs. My neurosurgeon suggested a fusion there. I'm waiting for an approval to get a myleogram from wc. I also have ulnar nerve entrapment in my right arm that causes my rt hand to be partially numb. I really want to get my surgery on my hand and get 2nd opinion on my cervical fusion too. I'm going to try to work but I am scared it is going to hurt more if I am driving to work and doing my job with restrictions.

My lawyer said do the best I can and go back to my Dr ASAP if I can't handle it and have him take me off work again due to the pain.

Looking for any advice and encouragement. Thanks in advance!

I really want relief from my pain. I have tramodol and ibuprofen and Tylenol and pain patches but they don't help a lot when im active and im worried I will get another ulcer

Why can't the label on the bottle just say take as needed or take as needef? Is there some kind of new rule ?

Sedgewick hasn't paid me much in April. Only 84$ approximately. Ssd paid me almost 700$. Will ss make up the amount that wc missed? Up to my normal amount of ssd? I just started getting my ssd in April. Can ss back pay me for April? Thanks for any help. My lawyer said let him know when im ready to get him involved. I really need surgery on my carpal tunnel and maybe my neck. So I want to keep my cobra and wc payments going. The injury was 4/07/2025

What plans do you all like for alternatives to cobra. I've got about 2 years until I can get Medicare and I am trying to plan ahead. I'm pretty sure im going to have to lose my job because im on workers comp and im in Michigan and sedgewick is not reliable for paying my weekly payment. I sure appreciate any advice on this. Thank you
