Funniest of all…

...And, they keep insisting that there are many Australian workers that want to be 'on the system', or as put especially for me, 'how many Australian's want to shut their businesses down and live off the Government's money'. I wonder where this comes from, are the WorkSafe agent employees trained to think that anyone on their payroll is dodgy? It certainly might explain why no one is compassionate, no one is empathetic, no one seems to understand, no one can answer a question appropriately, no one can make things happen for you, no one is interested (staff are here today gone tomorrow), all you get is lies, lies, lies or no answer, irrelevant treatment and judgement.

As this matter is currently going through the dispute resolution process provided by the Act, it would be inappropriate for me to comment on the specifics of your claim. Thank you for bringing this matter to my attention and I hope this information clarifies the matter for you."

Has this person been following you?

Don't be fooled by the 'human' looking disguise, deep down the 'p.i.' male or female can usually be seen dressed well and in a car parked on your street. He/she could be eating in the car, perhaps holding a camera or look dumb founded and staring into space if you suddenly look their way.

Who says I can’t travel?

I know I might be clutching at straws again but at the very least 360 cities is some great distraction and very light in capacity cost. And it's great planning for next time I have some serious pain relief (like a nerve block). I'll be off like a rocket! Ok, maybe not a rocket but compared to the usual pace it'll feel like it.

Independent Medical Examinations

Well first I have to express my confusion with the use of the word 'independent' in an insurance system. Independent from who? Independent for who? And why, in my case, am I, the injured worker, being 'independently' examined? I'm not confused about my therapies, treatments, reports and diagnosis, I know what my situation is... if the insurer or insurer's superior has an issue with any of this info then shouldn't my practitioners be assessed?

Depressed? You have to be, you just have to!

I remember friends, family, practitioners asking me how I was... "how am I?", I didn't know who I was let alone how I was!!!!!!!! I couldn't cross the street, had to turn spell check on my computer, couldn't speak from the piercing sound of my own voice bouncing in my own ears, couldn't go out, couldn't coordinate myself, I thought everyone who drove was going to kill themselves I was so disorientated all the time, and I couldn't choose between three apples if you asked me to! I slept like a dead person, had no energy, I took a huge dive into the deepest of caves. Actually to sum it up folks, I was depressed... yes, on the anti depressants. That was enough for me to see I didn't need that sort of medication. There had to be another way and I found it.

Express yourself

I often don't feel like talking or explaining the same boring chronic pain story over and over. And I'm thinking there may be a few people out there who feel the same. So, here's some artwork for you folks. Feel free to use it to order caps, t shirts, mugs, honestly, do whatever you want with it, just don't take my name off or manipulate the artwork. Oh, and pop me a message of thanks. Perhaps even come back with some images and I'll create a pain gallery!!!
