Is there any place that you can lie down at your work?

I understand the financial worries.

With the economy the way it is, it's scary to think I might not be able to come back to work within 12 weeks, and then to lose my job. As it is, I will have to come back to a different job. My boss can't hold my job.

But, I have to think positively. Or I would never get through surgery. And I know this is my only shot at being able to function normally again.

I hope you can find a doctor to get a second opinion.
