I was found to have a herniated disk which required back surgeory. Because this was not an on the job injury, or a slip and fall accident, I was told this would not be accepted as a work comp claim. While out on STD I wast terminated by my employer. Refusing to pay my medical bills, I decided to retain a work comp lawyer. My claim has now been found compensible, but I will be required to reimburse my insurance STD with my TTD. Can I take further action for wrongful termination, since this has now been found to be a work comp injury?

ask your lawyer

Yes. Definitely talk to your lawyer about this. He/she should be able to represent you in this case too. It is against the law to fire someone for a disablility.
