“[while receipt of social security disability benefits may be relevant to a determination of entitlement to PTD benefits under the definition of catastrophic injury . . . in section 440.02(34)(f)[sic] . . . , claimant's receipt of SSD benefits alone is not sufficient to qualify him for PTD benefits. The claimant must still prove every element of his claim, including . . . a causal connection between his compensable injury and the inability to earn which has entitled him to receive SSD benefits.”
