They don't know about the MS and I want to hide it for at least another year until I would be eligible for LTD. If I should get really sick we get 100% pay for six months if needed. My 3 year anniversary is January 3rd. I think I'll ask the doctor for a note just until I can figure out what it is. It hurts a lot when I first get up from sitting and after standing for nine hours at work. I know it isn't MS or it wouldn't have that pattern.

If it's arthritis I don't know what could be done other than sitting at work because I can't take the anti-inflammatory meds. Most of the people I work with are young guys in the 20-40 age range and big babies. They get irked by me because I keep them on their toes with commissions. Older customers are drawn to me because they can relate to me better. And they usually are the buyers too. So if I get a chair, the whining will increase in volume I'm sure.
