Ok. Working for the same employer for 2 years 9 months.
doing a heavy lifting job, sudden pain and discomphort in
the whole arm, random icing, felt like a text book heart
attack yet, the heart rate was normal. Reported it to the
manager and had to sit out an hour doing nothing, following
limited action,. a week later seen a doctor, had an xray, a
week later an mri that shown the AC joint inflammed and
some possible tears. Employer had not filed anything at
this point. 2 months total went by, trying to work normally
but in extreme pain the whole time, my general doctor
switched me pain medicine several times to cope. the
general doctor got the mri then told me to goto a
specialist, where then I was told I needed a decompression
and clas joint re attachment. The night before at home the
past owner sent me a vulgar and offending message that I
responded to say dont mess with me right now, I was at
home, in bed. I had the surgery and was fired for telling
him in a text at 930 at night from bed not to mess with
me . My recovery is 2 months minimum and I cannot do my
job, even if i was to shrug him off, I would never be able
to do what I have done for +10 years Full time. What should
I do?

Thanks.
