No wonder doctors and insurance companies think we are faking our injuries. My treating work comp doctor was so convinced I faking my symptoms that he got rough with me while preforming a test to try and prove I was faking my injuries by pushing down on the top of my head and twisting the head side to side. The result of his action was; large cervical herniation, displaced nerve roots, pressure on the spine, requiring the need for surgery, ACDF.
I now have a plate and screws in the neck with the level below and above the fusion showing problems and additional surgery in my future.
And I pay for treatment not work comp.
So yes this article makes me made as it makes out injured workers to be a bunch not to be trusted!
