Hello Nancy,

My RSD is not the result of a job injury. However, my long term disability insurance wanted to cancel my benefits. They claimed RSD is a mental not physical condition and they only cover mental conditions for 2 years.
I talked with my physcologist who recommened an attorney who helped to change the insurance companies view.
I recommend you consult an attorney. WC like insurance companies want to get out of paying so they make it soooo difficult to get proper care.
I know how frustrated you must feel. It's bad enough dealing with all that RSD does to our bodies and mind without adding the frustrations of legal matters. However, that's the way the WC system works. They almost force you get an attorney to get proper care and attention. (My husband had a WC injury from his job as a firefighter).
Take care of yourself the stress, alone, from dealing with WC will keep your pain flared.
I hope you can make some progress soon.
