Help! Need coping strategies for long Covid diagnosis and symptoms

The problem I am having is trying to explain this at work. There are days that I just can't drive because of the dizziness & lightheadedness, palpitations, breathing problems and depression/anxiety. I would benefit working from home a couple of days a week, but they are not letting me.

Hi Diba7290,
I understand what you are going thru, I am going thru this as well. The good news is that LC is now considered a disability and is covered under ADA so your employer must by law accommodate your disability. I got a letter from my primary doctor asking my employer to allow me a flexibility in working from home and office due to my medical condition. I go to the office twice or once a week and work from home for the rest of the week. It would be illegal for your employer to fire you or not accommodate you because you could sue them for discrimination against your disability if he retaliated, just get a letter and you are safe! Good luck! ❤️
