Working with bouts of severe asthma

[IChoose]

Has anyone found a legit way to work from home and make a reasonable living when asthma flares make it impossible to go to work for long soans of time. This makes independent living impossible. Any thoughts on housing?

Hi, I have recently been diagnosed with asthma without any tests been done!!!

I had to reduce my working hours from 36 to 16. At first it was 36 to 29 but after being sick for so long at the beginning of the year I had to reduce my working hours again!!! I also have osteoarthritis in both thumbs, bursitis in my hip, plater fasciitis in both feet and other feet problems.

I would love to find some form of work that is possible to do from home.

Good question! I am a freelance writer and have been for a decade. Although I’ve only recently been diagnosed with asthma I’d say it’s probably one of the best jobs for working at home. The thing is like any job you’ll need to find someone who understands you have an illness. I don’t work full time and imagine it would be hard to meet deadlines during a flare. A possibility is writing for a site that’s about illness. I’m sure they would understand when you’re sick.
