Hi Angie - thank you for being a teacher most importantly, but I definitely understand how difficult is to put on a happy face and push through your job when you hurt. Have you considered disability or early retirement? Perhaps reducing your hours or taking on a different position? Just brain storming here. I ended up going on temporary disability which turned permanent and it was for the best. Pushing and crashing does not help chronic conditions.
Do you have any consideration of trying a pain rehab center like Mayo's?
