I had an accident on October last year, and the first dr sent me back to work lite duty then I was still on pain. I changed doctors then the other dr ordered an MRI and It showed that I had an herniated disc and the mri report explained the pain but once the insurance contacted the dr the dr changed his mind and changed his report he said I am doing very well but I am still under pain and they want to settel my case for 10 thousand. My lawyer said its a good option since the dr said I am doing very well ebven though the mri report and the independent dr report. I sense he might be on insurance side what Can I do ? I am in georgia.

If you need to get a third Dr's opinion of your MRI scan, one that is not paid by your employer. If you need to go out of state to get it done again.

get another opinion and get a new lawyer too. did they say how long until you're going to need surgery? keep that in mind as they try to settle. once it's settled it's over and private insurance may not cover surgery for a pre-existing condition.
