As you guys already know I have lost my job and I think my IT career is over now (at least until a cure is found). I tried to pick up books and refresh myself but no, my flue like symptoms (tiredness, brain fog etc) are very strong. Recently I went for few interviews but soon realized I can not handle the normal level of stress and tiredness now. It is hard for me to stand on my feet more than 40 minutes, I get tired very easily.
Now I planning to drive Taxi ( actually have written the test already) but I think even this is not possible for me given the long hours and odd timings for being a taxi driver.
My question is how I can go on disability. My Doctor will never write any thing for me. He thinks other than low testosterone I am fine and the rest are my made up stories. All my weakness, weight loss, tiredness, sleep problems etc are because of my own fault. Here I give an example I visited my doctor yesterday with full blown flue like condition. I was feeling very weak and dizzy. My doctor’s assistant did not even listen to me. She said I am an obsessed ,crazy hypochondriac. I came home and checked my temperature it was 101+ fever.
how can I cope with this situation ,any suggestion, advice?
