?? About California State Disability
I was wondering if anyone has been on Californias State Disability and returned to work at a reduced work schedule. Do they continue to pay you benefits if you return to work less hours than you worked prior to your disability?
I have 3 months to go before i return to work after just going back out, but my neurologist already said she wont approve me to work any more than 3 - 8 hour shifts a week when i return in January. I was working 36 hours a week which is considered full time.
Will state disability give me payment on the other 12 hours i will be missing? I'm already scared about the permanent reduction in hours i will be working when i go back and not sure if i will be able to pay my bills.

Suffered a TBI with PCS on April 25th 2011 from multiple blows to the head from falling, unconscious for 12 hours with no memory of event. Hit the back of my head, and above right eye. MRI and CT negative. Symptoms included constant headaches (migraine, pressure, tension, icepicks), dizziness, tinnitus, visual changes, photophobia, fatigue, "spacing out", word finding difficulties, depression, and emotional lability.
Began Healing in November 2011 after starting acupuncture and Healing Touch (a nurturing energy therapy that promotes relaxation and pain relief). I went back to work in February 2012. Ive been symptom free since July 2012. Very happy, positive, energetic and working out every day, doing yoga, and living a normal life again!
I also began taking Healing Touch classes in November 2011 and completed 5 Levels of Healing Touch Certificate Program that included a 1 year mentorship to become a Healing Touch International Practitioner in June 2013. I am so pleased to offer this wonderful healing therapy to my patients, friends, and clients.
