If you go back, too soon, and are involved in an accident, it's not the Workers' Comp doc they'll be coming after.

I am not unionized. I am going to see what's said today. I'm currently unsure if I should consult a WC attorney. Workers comp is already questioning how I have a concussion from a explosion without hitting my head. A explosion that was heard and felt 3.5 miles away, I was 8 ft away when it happend. I feel lucky to be alive!

I will not drive like this, I hope I get a good doctor, I vomit just riding I don't think I could drive. Headaches are getting worse everyday meds don't help at all :-(
