Nurses with lupus

Not Lupus, but polymyositis. This leaves me too weak to work. I never expected to be disabled like this, in fact I even told my co-workers that I expected to work until the day they had a coffin waiting for me at the time clock as I punched out. I envy you being able to work! Back on track, you didn't give much information to go on. Have you talked with your doc about this? Maybe a med change would help. What position are you filling now? Can you move to a position with less direct exposure to infectious patients? I'd say get away from a medical floor, but an ortho floor should be much cleaner. Are you a hospital nurse? A friend had problems with the fluorescent lights aggravating her lupus. Maybe home health work would be a better choice? Those are the suggestions that come to mind.
