I'm sorry to hear about the difficulties you've been facing since your accident on 7-11-05. As a Workers' Compensation attorney in Florida, I understand that your situation has caused you significant physical and emotional distress. It's important to acknowledge the challenges you have endured, including the multiple surgeries you have undergone, the infection you contracted, and the ongoing pain you are experiencing in various parts of your body, such as your hip, knees, and shoulders. In situations like yours, it can be frustrating when the company refuses to provide further surgeries and fails to address your potential permanent disability status. It is your right to receive the necessary medical treatment and support, as well as the documentation that validates your disability status. It seems that the company's response, or lack thereof, has left you feeling ignored and unsure about your future.  I would recommend taking proactive steps to address this situation. Here are some suggestions: Consult with an experienced Workers' Compensation attorney: An attorney who specializes in Workers' Compensation cases can provide valuable guidance and help navigate the legal process. They can advocate for your rights, communicate with the company on your behalf, and ensure that you receive the appropriate benefits and medical care you deserve. Document all communication: Keep a record of all interactions with the company regarding your disability status and medical treatment. This includes dates, times, and the individuals involved in the conversations. Having a detailed account can help your attorney build a stronger case and demonstrate the company's negligence or lack of response. Seek a second medical opinion: If the company refuses to provide further surgeries or medical treatment, consider obtaining a second opinion from another qualified medical professional. Their evaluation can provide additional evidence supporting your need for treatment and may strengthen your case for Workers' Compensation benefits. The short answer in your case, is that Permanent Total Disibility Benefits remain open as long as your workers' compensation claim is open. Remember, as an attorney, I am here to support and fight for my clients’ rights.
