Hi everyone,
I finally felt that I caught a break with my interview this cycle, but, as fate would have it, I am also likely going to be diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis when I see my rheumatologist next week. I have the worst luck ever. Pretty sure I'm cursed. But, gotta roll with the punches!
If I'm accepted, I'm not going to decline my spot based on this diagnosis, but I know that it brings about certain challenges (for me, specifically) with fatigue, joint aches, and brain fog - oy.
Do you, or someone you know/went to school with/worked with, have experiences with chronic disease while still studying to be/working as a veterinarian? If so, how do you make it work? Do you have any advice?
Feel free to PM me instead if you'd rather. Just hoping to get perspective since this is the battle I'm likely facing.
Many thanks,
Forks
