Hello, I would first like to say thanks for taking the time to read and reply to my concern.

I will give a little background on how I ended up with this problem. I took a fall which injured my wrist. When the doctor went in to correct the injury, in order to fix the problem he had to cut a nerve. This has cause me to have permanent numbness, pain, tingling and etc in park of my hand and wrist.

I work in a factory/assemble line making products at times this cause my flares ups and cause pain. Also sometimes I wake up in horrible pain.

I am almost out of my vacation and sick time at work because I've use it for when the pain is just unbearable. I've just found out about FMLA and wonder if its possible for me to get it for when I have flare ups when I am at work and sometimes right before work.

Some days its fine and I can go the whole day and forget I have the problem and some days its awful.

What is the process of going about getting FMLA? Are you require to see your doctor a number of times to get this? I have several doctors such as the doctor who conducts my EMG, the orthopedic doctor who did the surgery and my primary physician; who would I see to fill out any paper for it?

I apologize for the long post. Thanks once again in advance.
