Default Do you work?....

Well here I am almost 2.5 years after accident and we are trying to settle my work. comp. case. All of the stress from it is of course making me feel worse, but I am hoping that will ease up after it is all done. Of course work. comp. is trying to say that I have no impairments.

My lawyer and my vest. therapist are working to come up with some work restrictions or me. There is no way I can work more than half-time, and even that would probably be too much.

I would like to get an idea of what others with PCS do for income. So my questions are:

Do you work?
If so, what type of work?
How much do you work per day and per week?
Is your type and amount of work manageable with your PCS?
Any advice about finding the right type of work?
Do you receive SSD?

Thank you.
