Hello I'm from Milwaukee Wisconsin. I injusred my back while working in a nursing home on August 18th,2000. I have gone to the dr for the last 4 years and they keep telling me that i have to have surgery to fix the problem. I have a bulging disc at L5-S1 and it is ripped and the fluid is leaking onto my siatic nerve and causing nerve damage in my right leg. I have had 6 steroid injections one nerve root block discograms emg mri's you name it I've had it. I'm 26 years old and surgery is not an option for me. I have 2 kids and they want to do spinal fusion. My case has been going good thus far. Considering workmans comp is denying my claim. I had an accident and fell dow the stairs in july of 2000 due to my leg going numb while i was throwing a set of keys to my boyfriend. This was very early in the am about 1am or so on the 26th. Then on the 26th in the pm my boyfriend came home drunk and wanted to take my car. I would not let him and it escallated into him slamming my head into the wall and either punching or kicking me in the left leg.
workmans comp has been doing everything they can to get out of paying me or my bills. They went into public records and got the restraining order i put on this guy and are using it against me because of the dates being the same from when i fell down the stairs. I dont know what to do. It seems my lawyers are against me and all they said is that they hope a judge believes my story. I'm not lieing and I would not lie. It is just a freak thing that I had 2 traumas happen on the same day but at totally separate times. I dont know what to do. I'm scared they are going to really get away with mot paying for my medical bill. I was hurt before i fell down the stairs anyways and now they are saying I was not hurt till I fell down the stairs and claiming my boyfriend threw me or pushed me down them. Can they make such accusations and get away with it???? They are the ones now lieing. I guess I'm just comfused and looking for advice. This claim has been going on for 4 years now and I finally got a hearing date for june of 1004!!!!! But now all this stuff with the restraining order stuff. What can I do and what can I say to my attorneys? I feel like they are not on my side and that they feel i'm lieing also. They seem to not really care. Please help me.
