Careers For Fibromyalgia Patients

A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question 💭
Dallas, TX

Is there anyone here who has fibromyalgia AND works as a healthcare provider, researcher, UX designer, or anything particularly for fibro patients?

I'm thinking about a career change to work from home, while I'm also interested in finding a position that allows me to work for fibro patients and awareness. I'm still seeking what kind of options and opportunities are out there.

You go girl! Find us some relief and we will be very grateful. Someone who takes the lead will have many followers. Hugs

Thank you for the answers! I'm still doing research on career options. I have to find a position that allows me to sit down regularly since I can't stay on my feet for longer than one hour. I feel I need to go back to school for a new career.

Well, thank all of you for serving your communities!! My brother and niece are RNs so I know how challenging the medical field can be, but also rewarding! My nephew is a cop. My sister worked fitting contacts. My other sister was a teacher. I worked non-profit education organization. Apparently somehow we got the bug to serve others too. Helping others just makes you feel better about yourself and makes the day go by faster, doesn't it?

Even so I dream about leaving as it's hard sometimes and don't know how much longer I can work.

I work in the community and plan my own diary do can manage the condition a little easier although driving between patients not an easy option. My manager knows I have this condition and how it affects me so is very supportive which helps a lot and she knows that I do a good job so is willing to back mewhatever I need.
