ugh, illnesses are soo much harder with a baseline neuromuscular issue - I'm struggling to get over this upper respiratory infection plus UTI right now too.. misery, and scary too!
I hear ya about work... before I crashed and ended up in the hospital for a week 2 years ago, it was all I could do to just go to work for one day and then it would take me 3 days to recover. the last day I worked before I crashed, I made it 3 hours and couldn'dt hold my hands up to the computer, vision was wonky and couldn't stand up to talk to people.. I couldn't swing my arms when I walked as my shoudlers had no power.. IVIG has helped me get through the days at work, though some good and bad... I agree with you - mentally I benefit from going to work.. but physically it takes it's toll... If I wasn't the bread winner and insurance holder for my family I'd go part time if I could.. It's scary having your career on the line, among every other aspect of your life!
Hope you get to feeling better soon!
