I feel it is necessary to work and have interests within your abilities and not try to work outside or beyond your level of comfort. As stated, the severity is the key and how the PN impacts an individual. I my business, I limit my hours each day and over the years, I have made adjustments to how I work making it clear to others my abilities and limitations. Many of us with PN can carry on with their career making changes along the way, some minor and some major. Or, if needed, find something of interest even part time that will help keep you active both physically and mentally. Keep active all. If helps! Ed
