Question About Disability

A MyMyelomaTeam Member asked a question šŸ’­
Chicago, IL

I was diagnosed in 2021 with MM and had a successful stem cell transplant. I returned full time to teaching, but just feel too tired and in pain on a regular basis. I am currently looking into my district disability policy as an option. Iā€™m wondering if anyone here has any experience with this?

Didi on this site is a teacher, actually admin, and works full time. She would have more insight for you. My husband found working full time tiring. He retired last summer.
