Sorry for the poor job I'm going to do in explaining this but in November of last year I snapped all 3 ligaments on the outside of my left ankle and workers comp has been great about making sure I had all of the medical attention I needed but after 2 rounds of physical therapy, DR's, medication etc. it's not better, still have a limp and looks like a tendon is stretched out. I was laid off early July but workers comp is still covering everything medical bill wise. They're now speaking with the doctors to find out if surgery is my only option to get back to normal but I would rather not do it if I don't have to (I don't want to have to be laid up for months) I need some advice, if surgery is the only option then I know I need to do it but I was laid off in July and I can barely afford to pay my bills let alone be laid up for 6-8 weeks to recover. Was told that the continuing problem with my ankle was because it didn't heal right (I was finishing my first round of PT when I learned this so they stopped it until I could talk to my DR again, then knowing it wasn't healing right put me in another round of PT that made me hurt and limp worse.) qWhat happens to me financially in this situation? Can I do anything about not being able to find a job due to the pain and loss of movement and what is the best way to find out if the continuing problems with my ankle are due to medical negligence?
<bot>: Ankle has been bad for almost a year after a workplace injury. Been laid off. Quality of life sucks due to injury. Do I have any legal options?
