I’m 61yrs, aircraft manufacturing manager diagnosed with gMG 5yrs ago (after 2 years of troubleshooting various, seemingly unconnected symptoms).
My employer accomodation is satisfactory but my symptoms make me a liability in that environment. More specifically, my “recurring, indefinate leave of absence” protects my employment from absences due to IViG treatments, yet doublevision presents personal safety issues on/near equipment, and slurred speech negatively effects critical communication.
Since my first MG “crisis” 2 yrs ago, I’ve been away from work, on long term disability insurance. They’ll hand me off to social security when I get to 65 I’m sure…
