i made the trip out to the island yesterday to talk to my human resources manager. she said that, because the orthopedic surgeon could not give a reasonable expectation of the ability to work, i would not be allowed to do so until i saw the rheumatologist. however, that not being until the 17th, i would have pointed out before then and lost my job, anyway. we considered it would be best for me to resign, so that my record would not show that i was "terminated due to poor attendance."
so, i'm unemployed, once again. i am actively seeking another job, but i'm expecting i won't be able to work until i see the rheumatologist. i need a diagnosis. i need information. i need something to do other than pop prednisone and hope i can move come morning, that the pain won't be so bad as to leave me nauseous and shivering on the bathroom floor.
i'd like very much not to do that again.
whine,
work,
