Record No. 1084-13-2 MEMORANDUM OPINIONï ªï ª PER CURIAM OCTOBER 8, 2013 COUNTY OF CHESTERFIELD FROM THE VIRGINIA WORKERS COMPENSATION COMMISSION (Mischelle Brown-Mayo, pro se, on brief). (David W. Robinson, Senior Assistant County Attorney, on brief), for appellee. Mischelle Brown-Mayo (claimant) appeals a decision of the Workers Compensation Commission affirming the termination of an award of wage loss benefits on the ground that claimant s current disability is unrelated to the compensable accident. Claimant contends the commission erred by (1) discounting the opinion of her treating physician, (2) giving undue weight to the objective findings, (3) concluding the record demonstrated she was receiving treatment for back pain shortly before her compensable accident, and (4) failing to take into consideration her testimony describing her symptoms and injury. We have reviewed the record and the commission s opinion and find that this appeal is without merit. Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the commission in its final opinion.
