I'd be happy to discuss what the compensation insuror can and cannot do with you and your options if you will give me a call.

Re: therapy stop
You can file a claim with the workers' compensation commission if you haven't already done so, then request a hearing on the issue of treatment. Usually if you present a report from your doctor explaining the need for more therapy, the commissioner hearing the case will order the insurance company to pay for it. They probably had you examined by their own doctor who said he thought you didn't need any more therapy.
