I don't necessarily need restrictions but if I wanted them, could probably get them. My injury is aggravated by repetitive motion. It's a catch 22: I do have more pain because I do have to work and it does hurt (hence the pain med). I'm just assuming that if needed, I could possibly have...

Dear FlaRiptide: They have dragged this out for over a month! Other employees have told me they heard I was in big trouble making it appear I've broken some law concerning the drug test which everyone knows I took. I don't want other employees to know my personal medical history because I...
