thank you so much for the info how can two doctors come up with a different mmi rating the comp dr gave me 25% and my dr gave me 50% i guess its cause they dont want to pay , i have been out of work from the comp dr cause he would not release me its been 3 years and i just got released this past week now what , he also gave me restriction so they start talking about a settlement or do i have to wait another 3 years for that to start i hate it well thanks for all your help

littlewish...
if you don't already have one... you might want to get a lawyer... they should be able to help you through this with greater ease.

I wish you the best.
