Epilepsy and Your Career

Does anyone feel like they are being held back in the job advancement when it comes to promotions due to them having seizure, or side of effects their medication from their seizures? I know by law we can't be discriminated by our epilepsy, if we can do the job; but a manager can just easily say that someone was better despite your knowledge of the job and your availability to work.

Am I the only one who feels this way or am I just having resentment?

Part of the reason it bothers me is because it's so hard to get a job near enough for me to walk to work or that I can get a job that I get paid enough to pay for my transport.
