Well, even though my job is originally medical in nature, I'm a civil servant and they open all departments to light duty.

Those ideas are helpful! The first two accommodations I'd ask for is part time work to start and during the daytime, off by 5 pm. So i can take meds and work during the warmth of the day. I've been allowed those before so I'm sure those two will definately be included. My last restrictions were no use of the right arm/hand. No work environment below 70 degrees. And I do have the unions help as well.

I don't know that I want no use again....I became a human sign. Literally 20 hours a week I asked people not to knock on a door. That's all. And it terrified me because of the public contact. A guy got mad and yelled at me and I threw up everywhere.

I just so want purpose, and coworkers, and higher income! I make several more dollars an hour now than what my wc is based on. And the health ins!
