exclusive remedy clause?

i was hired in a phone representative capacity, i requested a headset at date of hire. the supply chain manager (who couldn't care less about me) never took the request seriously. months endured, still no headset, even after countless memos for this, now i need an anterior cervical discectomy. is it possible to sue my employer for this great harm?
