Do most of you work? (USA)
Do you work full time, part time, or with an adjusted schedule that is supplemented with social programs like disability in USA?
My workplace is terrible for disabled people. They will not allow work from home at all even with a doctor's reccommendation, they are deliberately slow with accommodations, and the facility is half death-trap if you have any mobility aid. I am fighting them on this, and I'm not alone in it, but it is a long process.
So my question is does POTS keep you from working? I have a desk job but the act of commuting and the stress of being in the office is very hard on my body. I am doing physical therapy, managing with compression, diet, and light exercise, but even then at best I function at like 50% on a good day. Is it worth it to try and keep working a regular job?
I am just not sure what my foreseeable future looks like as far as finances and work, so I thought I might ask others with my same illness for some perspective. Thanks, hope this question is okay to ask 🫶
