My MS MD said the #1 complaint of MS patients is the INability to multi task at times. Sometimes its related to a mini flare, and sometimes it is just an MS thing. It is one of the true horrors of this disease is that it robs us of our ability to keep up to our old selves.

If your boss knows you have MS, you are right, he cant fire you for a sx of the disease, but he can place you into a job that has less responsibility and less chance of messing up his day.

I really hate this disease! I used to run an entire medical center for several prisons. From keeping the meds running on time, to organizing and motivating staff, and providing safe secure enviornments for staff as well as inmates when they required care in private. Now? I have days that I cant answer my email, and listen to my DH talk! REally upsets me.

Please make sure to tell your MD about the increase in sx of your disease.
