You should immediately consult with an attorney so that an Application for adjustment of claim can be filed with the Illinois Worker's Compensation Commission. it is possible that your employer shold be paying you temporary total disability (TTD) while you are off work and if they cannot accomodate your current work restrictions.

I would be happy to discuss this issue with you further .
