It’s a dilemma. Especially on these bad days when you can get out of bed. Lucky enough where my job is putting me on a health leave but I feel like I’m getting worse instead of better. But I’m scared of not getting approved for Ssdi and if I don’t I’m screwed. The exhaustion and memory loss is getting worse as well and if I get diagnosed with one more thing I am going to scream!!! Any advice ?
Hi Amy, I'm really sorry you are going through this, I can tell you it was one of the hardest decisions I have had to make since being ill. I took a leave for six weeks first and missed my job so I went back to work and only lasted two days. I hated to admit I just couldn't do my job any more and it stinks...For me being on a lot of medicines at the time was also affecting my vision and I was really frighten to drive. My husband drives me every place now. This is a choice only you can make, you will know when your ready. Keep us posted on what you decide. Keeping you in my thoughts, Gentle Hugs...
