A good attorney is important. Some WC attorney's are overloaded and really don't have time for the clients. Sad but true.

If the pain is that bad, I would go to the ER. The more docs, clinics, ER visits, etc. you have regarding this the better the documentation will be and the better chances you have on winning your case. Ask you WC Case Manager if they would like to attend all these visits as well. See if they will take you to the ER and explain that you are in too much pain to get yourself there.

Remember, the squeaky wheel gets the oil. Get squeaking and loudly.

Good luck.
