PCP/Ortho say restrictions, employer says no.
I went to an independent medical examiner (IME) October 1st of this year, about a week into a 3 week work conditioning program for an un-operated disc herniation in my lower back. My back was strengthening, but I was still very stiff and sore. The third week into the program it was found I can not safely lift and move objects on my knees, which is a primary function of an airline ramp employee. My PCP and Ortho doctors on the 11th of October, and then with a follow-up exam November 16th, released me back to work with MMI and permanent restrictions. I called my employer to let them know. A month went by before I received a call from my employer stating I was to report back to work FULL DUTY with NO restrictions the very next day based on the IME report. My employer says they always go by the IME report, and my claim adjuster and attorney have yet to return my calls. It's been 3 days since I was supposed to return, but I've been using sick days until I can get answers. Any advice on how to get the findings of MY doctors acknowledged, outside of just telling my attorney?
