Matt 1st thing is dump the lawyer for Workmans Comp. Does Mass. have legal aid? Is there mental anguish? Most certainly when you are injured and can't work and are in pain there is depression. But for reasons stated I would put that avenue asa last resort. Medically speaking if there are no broken bones and you are having those kinds of problems there is something wrong. Your leg just doesn't get an inch shorter. I would suggest alternative treatment. Chiropratic and or massage therapy. I always say there are 2 schools of Chiropratic. There are the pushers and prodders and the rack and crack men. For the most part I stay away from the pushers and prodders as they will stretch things out as long as they can. The rack and crack men will put you back in place much sooner. Yes it will hurt but if you hurt already it will be over much sooner. I was having a pain in my shoulder that the doctors couldn't figure out, chiropractic didn't help and physical therapy didn't help but 5 visits to a massage therapist and I was good to go. What do you have to lose at this point.

And I agree dump the car and expense at this point.

Best wishes and Good Luck
