Hi,I'm from california and I just found the message board
and it has a lot of good information....my quetion is I
have a works comp claim and I do have a lawyer for my
carpal tunnel but I also filed a stress claim (which was
denied) but my carpal tunnel was accepted.My laywer say's I
can file for past injuries. My carpal tunnel stated in 1994
I reported to my employer and got medical attention,then in
1999 it started hurting again, I got medical treatment, and
now in 2005 it's back alot worse. the only reason I filed a
claim this time is because the employer doctors put me not
light duty(also the company doctor comfirm my carpal
tunnel) but the duty was not light I was doing everything
my doctor(mind you the company doctor) told me not to do,
so that's when I called a laywer. Can my laywer file on the
two past injuries? If so how does that work
