Hi, I injured my right shoulder at work and had surgery for a labium tear. Was then fired for reasons my employer said was not injury related. Even though I'm not ready to go back to work fully, should I find and take a job even it its less money and hours or should I just ride it out. I feel like I should take something! I am getting TTD since surgery was March 23 2016. Please advise

Wisconsin pays temporary partial disability if you return to modified work with less earnings.

financial losses from comp injuries can be reduced by early return to work.
you need to make sure your doctor approves of any new/changes to your job duties.
