hi there, not sure in your state but the w/c has rules they are to abide by--do they---no my doctors(4 of them) have had me off work from an injury since 2007--their one doc says that injury was healed and my payments stopped--even though their doctor has stated i cannot work because of the disability it caused, they still have not restarted my payments and will not until they are ordered to by the industrial commission. and even then im sure it will take a while and i will have to fight for all the payments they missed. this is my secound time on w/c for a major injury and each time its the same thing--although they cannot legaly stop your payments if you are not at your medical maximum they will get an ime to say your injury has healed or some other lie to stop your payments in an effort to try and force you to return to work--they think if they do not pay you you will become desperate and return to work--which will show you really are not that injured--however--this game they play really hurts the injured and it takes getting a hearing or trial to get the pay reinstated)and back pay) plus you are entitled to interest and atty fees according to your state
your past medical is only relivant to your injury if it was somehow related to that same injury in the past
i really good piece of advice--when asked to sign for release of medical documentation for the injury--make sure you write on the paper for the records relating to that injury only. anyother medical records they can get their hands on is like winning the lottery for them.
w/comp is a game, unfortunately, you just have to stay strong enough to trump thier every move!!!!
good luck

cheers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
