I am new to this board, this is my first post. I have had pots for a year and a half. I was diagnosed with florid pots last March. Working is hard. I feel so supported to read your posts. I fight back tears every day and I force myself into work. Every minute I have to coach myself to stay there. I have really bad nausea. Every day I wonder if I made the right decision about working and not going on disability. I am fortunate to have a very understanding boss and I work in a hospital where people really care about each other. She let me work 4 hours a day initially, and now I am working the full 8. I have a desk job and the office is contained so the movement and visual stuff is as much a problem. I have a door and sometimes I close it and lay down for a few minutes with my feet up. My doctor is down the hall and he will see me the second I call. We have an IV center and I can get fluids there. I was 6 months into my master's degree when the symptoms started and I finished it a few months ago. Fortunately it was an online program, so it was very hard but not impossible to finish. I have an incredible family and support system. I just know that I have the best possible set up for a patient with pots who wants to keep working. Without every single one of these factors I could not do it. You have to find what works for you, what you want and fight for it every single day. I think it is worth it. I don't know why I have been blessed with such a good setup and the symptoms have tapered down enough to allow me to work. If anyone finds things that help them feel better at work- please post it!
