What happened

Was getting out of a chair in the PATT break room. As I stood up in the chair in the corner of the room I struck the metal leg of the coffee table on the left side pretty hard and somehow tripped after that. Not actually sure what happened after I struck the table. I moved forward and caught myself on the refrigerator. I did not fall. Immediately I had pain in my left ankle. I took a ziplock bag put ice in it and wrapped my ankle with coban. and continued to make phone calls. This was between [REDACTED]. The break room door was closed. The only other person I saw in the department was my coworker [REDACTED] who was on the phone with a pt. By [REDACTED] I was also on the phone with a pt I had been trying to get all week so I stayed late and took the phone call. [REDACTED] from the GI lab had stopped by to ask me some questions about Epic and how we do things. She noticed my ankle and asked what happened. By this time the ice had melted and the water had started dripping on the floor. Wh
