What is the name of your state?I live in Iowa. I am a 45 year old female. I was injuried at work. My right foot was injuried and broken. I was wondering what kind of settlements I would be entitled to. I have had 3 surgeries on my foot. My rating evaluation follows. When you evaluate the impairment of nerve defects, a 4% total impairment nerve rating with the 2% impairment rating for the joint, problems with degenerative joint disease and limited motion equals a total of 6% based on the chart. I also still have pain in my foot all the time. I am seeing a pain management Dr. I am having 1 injection in my foot once a week for the next seven weeks and maybe periodically thoughout my life. As well as possibly more surgeries.

You can call a lawyer and talk to him/her on the phone for free and tell them you would like to find out about a cash award total since you have some im rating's...Also your injection's you are getting once a week they are not cortizone are they? you don't have to say what the shot's are it's just you can only have 3 shot's of cortizone in the same spot for your whole life cortizone may help with pain but over time it tears down cartlidge,muscle
