You are most likely treating with an insurance company doctor who sent you back to work pre-maturely. You need to change your doctor immediately that will determine that you should be TTD ( Total temporary Disability). Feel free to call us at 213.388.7070 for a free consultation.
1) fire the nurse case manager.
2) object under 4062
3) make certain the doctor has seen your job duties
3) seek representation
