I really like the president of my company and I would put them in a very tough spot if I left (FMLA or Short term disability) because I am the most senior employee here. In the end I feel like I have to do what is best for me.

This forum is awesome by the way.
As a software professional, I used to work mainly for financial services companies.

With your injury, you aren't doing any favors for your career or your company by not taking the time to allow your brain to recover fully. Right now rest is the best thing you can do.

Hoping all goes well and it works out for you.
