Good morning. Have work later today. My nerve pain in my leg is driving me crazy and I’m dreading work today because I know it’s gonna aggravate it and it will be a lot more painful. The only time it calms down is after a couple days of not being super active. Like it takes at least 2 full days off work before it starts becoming less painful. But then as soon as I’m back at work/active again it’s super painful again and stays that way till I get a couple days off again and have at least 48 hours of not being super active.

Not quite sure what to do about it. I have an appointment with my doctor on Wednesday. I need to ask for that day off cause I’m scheduled to work that day during the same time of my appointment.

I feel like the only way to get it back to normal would be to not be working this job but I don’t want to quit. Idk if it’s even worth it though cause my rent doubled (more than doubled) and my SSI will be cut by like 90%. So all the money is going towards bills and it’s really tight. What’s the point in working a job that causes so much physical pain if I’m not even getting ahead financially. I’m actually going to be doing worse financially working than I was before I was working. Basically at this point I’m only doing it for the experience , not for money cause all of it goes towards bills. And it hurts my leg. So yeah sucks and I’m getting discouraged. Mostly about the pain and financial stuff.
