Dear Sirs:
The answer will depend on the cause of the shock--specifically, whether another company, other than your employer, caused this condition to exist.
If we can be of assistance, please call.

Yes, you may have both a PI and a comp case, but it will depend on which parties were at fault with causing your injury.
Re: workmans comp and personal injury
Depends on the facts of the case. It is possible to have a WC case for injuries sustain while working and have a third party personal injury claim against the careless party if the careless party is an outside company hired to do some work.
I hope this helps,
