Legal Question in Workers Comp in Connecticut

I went to my dr. in '05 for neck and shoulder injury. It was determined that I also had carpal tunnel and given wrist splints. Dr. suggested surgery but I held off b/c it wasn't hurting me that bad. I was billed under my regular ins. In '09 I reinjured my wrists to the point of needing surgery. WC says since I didn't file a claim back in '05 they won't cover this. How is this possible?
