Hi there everyone!

It's been quite some time since I've been on the forum. I hope you are all doing well and staying cool!


I finally got my disability to kick in last September which has helped me greatly! December and January was scary because of those unknown episodes that happened frequently throughout the day (which I still believe to be seizures), but I finally pulled out of them, for now at least. I've been feeling pretty decent lately and have been missing work.. so I talked to the manager about wanting to try coming back for small shifts.

My boyfriend is opposed to this idea, but is letting it happen with the deal being-if I start to decline I have to stop. Reasonable in my opinion.

So I'm now working (2) 4 hour shifts a week as a delivery driver. The manager said if I start feeling weak or symptomatic, to clock out and go home.

I'm super fortunate to have employers that understand my predicament and back me with everything. They won't even post my number for employees to call me to cover shifts(probably cuz they know I can't say no). I love my job and have missed it so much.

So this week was my first week back! I'm not going to lie, my pain levels are somewhat high by the time I get off, but I go home and nap until my body decides to wake me up.

I'll be making roughly 400-500 a month. As long as it stays in that range, it won't affect my ssdi, right?

I'm hoping so much my body will be able to handle these 2 shifts a week. I don't want to give up my job again. So I'm praying that this will be something my ms will accept and not go crazy on me for.

Good to be back.
