Workman’s Comp Doesnt Get What ‘Light Duty’ Means at My Job.

I was given the impression this morning that Workmans comp, for a pretty serious injury, was surprised my 3 months of light duty hasnt resulted in me being magicly fixed and returned to full duty. What they don't seem to get is that 'Light Duty' at my job is only the exact same amount of incredibly strenuous physical labor packed in to the doctor allowed time frame as much as they can get. And full duty, would be the same, except I would be forced to work 12 hours a day 6 days a week with no mercy. I need a new job, but finding new work that I'm qualified for, and that would be physically possible for me is proving a depressing challenge. I feel stuck, and now I'm worried they are trying to ease me out of this claim before I'm ready.
