Answer
Hi Ed and thanks for writing,

Before I can answer your question, please share a little more info with me:

-what state do you live in
-do you have Workers Comp Insurance (as you're self employed I assume like in most states you need to carry your own insurance)
-have you sought any medical care for your injuries, and if so, when and did you initially report it as a "work related injury"
-any additional info may also be helpful

Thanks,
Margot
