Warehouse Beam Injury, Kroger Denies Responsibility and Proper Treatment

I sustained an on the job injury at one of Kroger food stores a little more than two and one half years ago. I was hit across the forehead by a steel beam that came unbolted from the wall in the warehouse. I had to have thirteen sutures in my forehead. Less than a week later, I was sent back to work and put back on a cash register to check.
In addition to this injury, I now have problems with my neck, left shoulder, arm, and hand. I am in constant pain, and, Kroger does not care. I have been to several of their doctors, and, of course, each one has said there is nothing wrong with me. I have been told everything from 'it's all in your head, to Kroger is not responsible for you getting hurt.'
I have seen a doctor of my own, who has confirmed that I have several other injuries stemming from the first one, and Kroger refuses to accept this. Kroger doctors have not given me anything but an x-ray and test stress test for my left shoulder, no MRI, Cat Scan, or anything else.
The environment I work in is so hostile and I have received so much retaliation and backlash from the company for trying to get treatment until I am stretched to my limit mentally and emotionally. I hate going to work for fear of losing my job.
