You must speak with an attorney who practices in the area of worker's compensation at once. A claim must be filed on your behalf so that you may get the proper protection you need.

I am not sure where you were employed at the time of your injury. In any event you should consult with an attorney. If your injury occurred in Missouri, then I may be able to help you. You should feel free to call me for a telephone consultation at 314-727-2822. If I am not able to help you myself, I would be happy to refer you to someone who can!
