OT - I can attest to that. I fell while in travel status in January 2000. My leg swelled up like a balloon from my knee to my foot. Workers Comp treated me like a criminal for three years. I had all the symptoms of a torn meniscus. They refused to allow an MRI of my knee (the only way other than surgery to prove or disprove a torn meniscus), ET AL. Instead, they sent me to their doctor illegally (per their own regs). He filed a fraudulent, detailed report stating that I had completely recovered, yet he performed almost no orthopedic tests at all. Workers Comp ignored my physicians reports & fully relied upon their disputed doctors report. They ruled against me & terminated my claim. I used my health insurance & got the MRI. Turns out I had a severely torn meniscus that I was forced to walk on for 3+ years. I ground the torn portion to shreds & it tore up some cartilage too. Now I'm almost bone on bone on that part of my knee.
