The claimant sought removal from the MIG and entitlement to a series of treatment plans. Adjudicator Flude concluded that the applicant had suffered a predominantly minor injury. A post-accident MRI identified degenerative changes and nerve root compression. The applicant argued that the condition was pre-existing and entitled him to removal from the MIG. Adjudicator Flude disagreed and noted that the diagnosis was not made until 3 years after the accident and failed the requirement to be identified prior to the accident.
