'tippy toe' sort of situation are'nt you?
I'd follow up on the advice others have given you, and maybe check out that lawyer you saw last year? It mite cost some $$ now, but possibly save you lots of other $$'s and aggravation in the long run.
It's amazing to me what all we have to endure to try and get well! It's HARD WORK!
