Great that you are working...but not so great you are feeling so stressed.

I am pretty sure we could come up with at least one idea that might help, but do you know what is causing you to feel so stressed? It might help to know this in order to be able to look at ways to deal with it.

I started back very soon, some six weeks after, but I was on vastly reduced hours, only doing 4hrs a week or so, and slowly ramping up. i was also kept out of harms way and in the office for most part since I clearly was still quite frail.

so the question is what broadly sort of work are you doing?

are you copeing with the hours? I find even 10 months on I tire quickly, and once its gone its gone.

if its memory problems? forgetting the name of the person on the phone etc.
