What is the name of your state?
North Carolina
I am 37 years old and have worked for my current employer for 19 years.
Had an back injury, company filed claim, seen doctor. Had mri ,Buldging disk
He tried 3 epiderial injections, weeks of therapy, steriods, etc.
Had some relief, doc gave me 5 percent disablity rating, w/c wanted me to take a small amount of money and sign papers, I told them I was still hurting.
I told them that I didn't want any money or sign any papers . w/c said I had to. I just want to get better and continue to work. After some discussion and the pain in my leg getting worse they sent me to a surgen. I had second mri , ruptured disk now. I had surgery , and have been at home for about 2 weeks recovering. So far I feel good,just sore, have follow up with surgen in 2 weeks.
My employer is on my side , but I don't trust w/c, when I return to work.
What will happen with w/c now, will they try to get me to settle again?
Will I be covered if i have any problems in the future , if i sign anything?
thank you for your time
