Re: Neurological Complications due to Pancreatitis and working

[Guest guest]

I'm not sure of your name, so pardon me for the poor etiquette. When

I'm having an attack (this would be my third) of what the doctors

think is chronic pancreatitis, I go into a mental fog. I really have

a hard time remembering things.

I know how you feel about working and this symptom. I was worried to

death last week. This was the first time since the 'diagnosis' in

November that I had to call off. I was worried how it would affect my

job and co-worker relationships. I'm a newspaper editor so I really

need to have my wits about me. I just went out on short-term

disability today so that stress is behind me now. Do you have a

disability benefit at your job? Maybe you could take some time off

until the symptoms are under control.

Know that you're not alone. Tammy
