I have only worked 4 shifts so far and depending on how busy, noisy, stressful it is I will earthier have a splitting headache like someone is stabbing me, or just shooting pains. I know I am very early into my recovery and hope my symptoms improve, but I am honesty not sure if I can handle work yet. I keep thinking about switching jobs to a nice calm quiet work environment like a library or something, but that probably wouldn't be able to pay my bills.
I totally understand where you're coming from and how hard it is to work while in pain. I finally found the right medication to control my pain, and have recently weaned off of it because I no longer need it. What medication are you taking?
