I work at a stock brokerage firm (no stress there! ha ha) I actually fought with co-workers who told me to stop acting like a baby. I have to say, I didn't care who saw me (except maybe, clients) Several other people in my office suffer from migraine so they tended to be more understanding. I have been chronic now for 20 months and I don't care who sees me during an attack. I figure that the more people I can educate about this...the more understanding they will be...not only about clusters but other illnesses as well. I am on long term disability now so at least I don't have to throw myself around the office anymore. It is a hard thing to live with but I keep reminding myself that I have those moments when life is actually good. Count the blessings...so many people don't have any to count.
Keep up the good fight!
