Narrative

EE was lifting new screens from the manlift to the third plant screening tower, when he felt a sharp pain in his lower back. The pain eased after a minute, so he kept working. The next day the pain was worse, so he went ot a chiropractor. A couple of days later the pain was worse, so the chiropractor sent him to an MD.
