    Thumbs up Re: Six months of being passed from Dr. to Dr.

    From my experience over the past 6 months, I would definately say GET an Attorney ASAP! I have had to push the Dr's as well over the past 6 months. I Have been told by one of them that if they know litigation is involved that he knew that certain Dr.s will avoid certain diagnosis' and surgery. I myself was sent to a chiropractor by the first Dr. and told nothing was wrong with me. I went and started getting worse. I finally found a DR. that knew my symptoms right off the bat and told me that I had serious delay in my reflexes on one side. He diagnosed my ruptured disc before i had the discogram that proved it. Now keep this in mind, I had 2 Drs. and a chiro. tell me nothing was wrong and acted like i was crazy when i was in tears from pain. I had the MRI that was almost normal before but ONE DR. told me that didn't matter, that MRI's don't show everything. What it comes down to is YOU know your body! Don't give up but I will tell you that you have a LONG road ahead. I told my work that I was going to file it on my own insuranse as well until they told me they didn't have a job for me with a hurt back. Of course as soon as i filed WC. I was treated like I am a horrible,money sucking thief. Just one day before i was one of the best employees and had a better review than anyone in the store. I am still not even close to being recovered after having surgery fusing 2 discs and my lower back is still hurting really bad. You have to keep up the hope for your sake.No one else, even an attorney has as much to lose as you do! Obviously i am no attorney but i have learned plenty from this experience. the main thing i have learned is that some people can sleep just as easy at night knowing that they will lie with their hand on a bible the next day to save their job! Truth doesn't always prevail without a LOT of persistence on your part. You have to realize, they manipulate and lie for a living.Good Luck.
