This appeal arises pursuant to the Texas Workers’ Compensation Act, TEX. LAB. CODE ANN. § 401.001 et seq. (1989 Act). A contested case hearing was held on February 4, 2002. The appellant (claimant) contends that the hearing officer’s determination that the claimant’s ____________, compensable injury does not extend to or include complex regional pain syndrome, hypertension, stomach ulcers, or depression is against the great weight and preponderance of the evidence. The respondent (carrier) responds, urging affirmance.
