I was just wondering how most people with CF handle/tolerate full time employment. Do most people with CF work full time? Or do they resort to part-time work. I myself have CF and struggle; I cannot hold a full time job. Is this a common theme among others with CF?
Ive also found its very difficult, well actually near impossible, to find a place of employment that allows an extremely flexible work schedule to accommodate people with CF so they can work around their medical issues. Have any of you been lucky enough to find that flexibility in your employment?
Do most people with CF usually go on SSDI and at what age have some of you applied and got accepted? If not on SSDI and cannot hold a full time job, do you constantly face financial struggles and how have you handled them? Just looking for ideas&.
