Has anyone else lost their chosen career due to chronic Migraine?
Has anyone successfully managed to get a PIP ( Personal Independence Payment) specifically for incurable and chronic Migraine?

It's a disability benefit in the UK only. It's very hard to get n I dont think anyone with Migraine ALONE would stand a chance.😏

Human resources can decide if migraines fall under the ADA. My neurologist said many companies will recognize the condition as a disability. Therefore, your employer can choose to make reasonable accommodations for you to keep your job. It's worth looking into

I had to close down my cleaning services after 20 years. I am on disability, I know it helps if you have kept all your past records and I had a lot!
