First I'm really glad you did what was necessary to stay safe. I was in a similar position as you 5 years ago, and I opted with the advice of my pdoc to go on disability. Depending on your job that may mean short-term, where they pay a % of your income, or state disability. If it turns into a long-term disability, then you have Social Security available. For now, find out your options. Just learning I didn't have to return to work right away was an enormous relief for me. wishing you all the best-judy
