Title: Had to give up
Post by: kcoffiner on May 28, 2008, 09:10:00 AM
I was going to start a new job but my eyes are sooo dry I can't. I am really dissappointed. Sjogrens has taken everything away!

Hi Kc

I'm really sorry to hear that because I know you were looking forward to starting. What did the job involve? Was it going to be sitting looking at a screen all day?

I'd go mad without my job. It gives me something else to think about.

Take care - Scottie  :)

It involves computer. I chickened out. I currently work sales-no computer.

Have you given any thought to "moisture chamber" glasses?  Quite a few of our members have had good luck with them.

Hugs, Pooh

Sorry to hear that. I am amazed that anyone with Sjogrens can even do a job on the computer 8 hours a day. It drives me crazy in 2 hours!!! Hopefully you can still be employed at some other job that doesn't tire you out so bad. irish ;D

I'm sorry that this job didn't work out for you...but maybe you can find another that will fit you better and eye dryness wont be as much of an issue as this one that would require you to stare at  a computer screen all day.

Don't give up! You will find something else!

Good luck to you!
