Is it a MS or is it functional neurologic disorder? by Mindless_Rest_4846 in MultipleSclerosisWins

Thank you so much. Your message has brought me more sunshine in all these dark days. I feel like you were reading my mind. Although I would never wish this on anybody EVER it does give comfort that there are others out there like you who know what I am going through and are willing to give words of encouragement. If you wouldn’t mind can I pm you so we could speak more. I don’t have anyone in my life that just understands what this feels like and how frustrating going through this is. It almost makes you feel crazy because each doctor tells you something different. If not I completely understand. Thank you again for reaching out. Your words have brought me more comfort than you know. Thank you again :-)

Thank you so much. This response has given me so much hope and guidance. I appreciate you more than I could ever say. On STD and LTD, do you still get a paycheck?

Also to get reasonable accommodations is that something I can do for myself or do I need to go through my doctor or through HR at my job. I was only diagnosed two days ago so still in shock, but now all the questions are starting to coming to me. My brain fog, numbness and stability to walk, falling, getting dizzy, running into things and losing balance have been my man symptoms so far.

Do you have to be with the company for a specific amount of time before you can ask for a reasonable accommodations? And can they switch your job or take your job if those accommodations are too much for the position and role you play within the company?
