I went back to work on the 3 day it was a Sunday a very busy day. I hadn't even had lunch it was around 12:30 I sprain my left ankle. My supervisor didn't belive me until we wnt to the ER. Ever since that day i have had nerve problem that now runs up my leg more in the back. I can't stand no longer than 4 hours on my leg without it starts hurting and also depend on what I'm doing it will also swell. I have asked my case worker if I could get an exam done on both my foot and ankle and they refuse. Well the ankle and foot specialist did all they could. So He referral me to Houston clinic which also does workmans comp. for my employer. He even try to get my case worker to let me yhave an exam on both injury. She said no. After 3 visit and still can't wear steel toe shoes and still having pa8in that is now getting worse and all this time i'm paying out of my pocket for all of this Dr. York come in and state I can't no longer treat you due to the your injury6 at work that where the pain an all the rest of your problems coming from. well workmans comp. won't treat me now, My employer has supending me without a letter they had harass me so bad that i went 9in depression before I had got suspended. It has been a month and 3 weeks i haven';t heard from my compqany. I don't hae Insurace now and the pa8in is so bad I will cry just about the whole night. I have seen one lawyer but the company I worik for owens Georgia just about. I feel that I wasn't treat fair due to being put back on full duty and the worker comp Dr. would say there werenothing wrong with me. So if there weren't nothing wrong with me why would it get so bad that I couldn't walk. Please help I just want to get better and keep my job.
