You might feel better after telling them off , but your still stuck with them til the claim is closed..
Just thinking - antagonizing them might make for more problems down the road.. the system is tough enough without making an enemy.

But I do think once you have an atty they should stop contacting you , unless it is something the atty OK'd an the atty should send a letter telling you what's happening. more or less.
I usually would receive copies of correspondence between my atty & the wc ins.

Definitely don't chit chat w/ the case manager, or your HR person at work, or anyone at work if you still go there or visit, as any of them might be loose lipped or even misspeak, and word will get repeated even if only by accident.

I just think it's better to keep mum on the wc case/claim, as well as any other activities at work or to anyone that might talk to coworkers.


TOS is not well known either and many symptoms do overlap with RSD - and many have both conditions, so if your pain & symptoms are mostly located in hands, arms and shoulders, neck it might be a good idea to read about it on our forum.
here is the link to the useful sticky thread , it has the main TOS medical websites & info sites listed in post # 1 - and much more info in the other posts too.

Just in case you find it fits, or, if you might have both TOS & RSD then you need to have it added onto your claim as well as get proper treatment for it.
