Narrative

Every once in a while, when moving right thumb, employee states it feels like an electrical shock going the length of thumb. Employee did not give any reason for what or why this might be work related. He in fact, sought treatment but didn't indicate to clinc that he felt this was work related. So, we weren't aware that this was diagnosed as work related until 6/12/08.
