Dear Lisa,

I don't know what kind of situation you are in with your employer, but if there is any possibility that you can take advantage of any type of modified/disability work program it could be very beneficial to you as you learn how to manage your RSD diagnosis & symptoms.

If you keep pushing yourself and work till you drop you could end up damaging yourself further on down the road, ending up unemployed and out of options. Managing rsd symptoms requires a lot of patience from both you and your employer. Learning how to pace yourself, to keep it moving but to know when to back off so you won't flare yourself up can help to keep you working and in the game.


I wish you well.

MsL
