I'm glad you are out of the hospital -- I read your experience. I am sorry for the pain you went through.
I know how hard it is to hide what you're really going through from coworkers. It doesn't seem fair -- if our afflications were physical diseases, there would be no problem telling them and they would understand and rally around us. But as it is, do what you need to keep yourself safe.
I hope your new therapy will be a good one for you. Keep us updated.
