I fell off a ladder at work in aug of 2007. I was x-rayed a week later in the er.I had some sweeling in lower lumbar region and scatica. I was out of work for close to 2 months. I went back in Oct but changed stores. I am currently out again and finally got a dr to find what was really going on. I have a bulging disc at the lower lumbar 3.It is pressing on the nerves that connect to the scatic nerve. This is why I have been having leg pain. I have been out of work for alittle over a month now. I am about to lose my job due to being out to much. My health ins will be terminated to. I dont know if my supervisor even reported the injury or not,but I did tell the dr at the er.Is it to late to file wc. I know I should have filed as soon as it happened but I was new to the company and didnt wont to risk my job. I really didnt wont to go on wc again .I had a previous shoulder injury and I hated depending on wc.Thanks.
