I have POTS (Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome.) I worked for a community college for 17 years. I became disabled in December of 1997. I was paid short term disability for two months. My employer then gave me a return to work date. I could not even stand much less go back to work. I have not received another dollar from my employee benefits to which I contributed. I have been discriminated against in the most heartless manner. My life has been severely impacted by this financial devastation. Where are the protection laws for the American worker when they are denied their just due?
I have listed some books here on disability
and dysautonomia through my affiliation with Amazon.com. If you care
to help a patient who is trying to help herself, please consider ordering
your books and tapes and many other products from Amazon.com through this
page. Thank you and God bless!

"Taking the tilt table test" by Linda Clement - Monday, July 13, 1998. Taking the tilt table test was a fascinating experience. I learned a lot about my disease, and I'm glad I did it, but I'm not getting back on one of those things unless they drag me kicking and screaming. A must read for anyone taking the TTT! |

If we cannot give patients what they require to meet their daily needs we are somehow lacking in our humanity to our fellow man. All those who are newly disabled with dsyautonomia and are applying for disability benefits, I wish you the best and Godspeed in the process. The stress of living life with these limitations is quite enough without adding the financial woes of denial of benefits.
