Narrative

While off from work due to a non-work related illness the employee complained to his doctor about numbing sensations in his right hand. The doctor ordered an EMG, which showed the symptoms were due to Carpal Tunnel Syndrome. The company doctor determined the injury was partially due to repetitive motion on the job.
