Narrative

Sometime in January (employee is unsure of date), employee was lifting a steel beam. EE picked it up and put it on EE's shoulder. EE felt pain in EE's left shoulder. The pain persisted for several weeks, but EE did not report the injury until April. EE had EE's shoulder checked, then had an MRI. It appears EE will need surgery.
