In the middle of a workers comp case drawing near settlement

I’m in the middle of a really sticky workers composition injury case that involves multiple body parts, and I’m drawing near to my examination panel which kind of determines settlement. recently I’ve had a lot of the coworkers reach out to me and ask to hang out. Ask me what I’m doing, and what I’ve been up to, asked me if I’m working, and where I live. is that legal? It’s making me very paranoid and not want to leave my house.
