If someone is responsible for your inury(ies), you can bring suit. The fact that your insurer has paid the medical bills will not reduce your ability to sue for those bills. If the responsible person's insurer paid the bills, then that may reduce what you can obtain by way of judgment. It is difficult to quantify pain and suffering. Often in settlment, they are viewed as a percentage or multiple of the medical bills, regardless of who paid them.
Good luck
