The circle of jobs that I might be able to hold has gotten correspondingly smaller. So I am rapidly approaching a place where my options are: get better, or be on some type of long-term disability.

I realize this is pretty vague advice, and that if you knew how to get better, you probably wouldn't be here. My point is just that, in my case at least, I have not come up with a silver bullet job that won't risk harm to any of my symptoms.
