I am trying to return to work after 2 years on LTD. I contacted my job about returning to work and had insurance and my doctor inform them that I am ready to return and my restrictions. That was early June. It is now July and I have contacted them twice since then and been given no update on when I can return to work. Should I assume that I will not be returning and look for another job.
