Hi Catch, any word?
So sorry to hear this. It really stinks. I, too, was forced out, nicely..cough..cough.. when I was having 3 to 4 relapses a year. I was on Avonex and then Copaxone, Neurontin, and Klonopin. Yikes!

Between the side effects of Avonex, other meds, and the multi-relapses overlapping each other, I was not able to multi-task with people, in person or on the phone.

Let alone the fatigue I was having. Spasms, shocks, numbness and cognitive issues at the time, and the stress of the job which I think exacerbated the MS, instead of the other way around.

I had to quit for less than perfect performance evaluation. They had no other opening that I was suited for, like you. I had raving review performances in the past years, but they didn't count them.

I hated that day too. I found out in order to have the ADA give you help, you must have come out and told your boss, not all others that you have MS. Otherwise they don't have to accommodate you
