I would definitely get your attorney on the WC situation. I don't know what state you are in - but in CA, if the WC insurance denies anything, you can send it to the state for review. Your lawyer might also be able to find a doctor that the WC and you agree upon. Basically, if that dr says you need medical treatment, they have to give you medical treatment. I had to go through all of this in the first year - it took me almost that long to get my surgery approved. Again, every state has different WC laws but I would be calling my atty's office every day until they have exhausted all options. Or get a new attorney (I did that too).
Try to stay positive - I know it sucks. You can still recover, you just need to get the right people on your team. Good luck!
