What is the name of your state? Live in VA. Work in NC. I've been on my job for over 9 yrs. Was injured in Jan 04. Worked on an off the whole time with a pay cut, Explain: I am a truck driver, the doctors put me off the truck an allowed me light duty in my plant which placed me in an enormous pay cut. after nine months of doctors I had a disc surgery, a month of healing at home, was paid workers comp, weekly which was more than if I was working in the plant, closer to my Truckers pay. Now, I've recovered and back on my Truck, and released from all of my doctors. Which I must live my life from here on out with certain disabilities. I have been rated with a 20% disability rating and stipulations with in the event that my back messes up again, in the next 10 years, I will be covered by W/C. My question is now, how long do I wait for my settlement? I've been totally released, now for over 3 weeks. My w/c rehab nurse told me, that once I was totally released that it would be just a matter of a few days, within a week, is she bsing me?
