injured at work dealing with workers comp.( what a pain in itself.)
been through all the conservative care, ie.... rest, eppi. shots, meds
nuculoplastis(?). Refered to nurosurgeon he says need surgery. W.C.
will not approve at this time. Have major headaches ,right arm pain
numbness, tingling and feels like someone is trying to pry out shoulder
blade. constant nauesa or vomitting. started to effect left side with same symptoms. W.C. sending me to Portland from Alaska for IME, problem is cant even go to store without agervating symptoms and being in major pain from any activaty. this has been going on for months. Any advice would be great.
Thanks Razz

Wow, sounds like that would be very rough. What is WC saying as to why they won't do surgery? Is it becuase they want the IME first? Any chance you can get some powerful medications to help you during your journey?
