Have any of you had trouble with managing surgeries, pain, medications, and other things that come with Endometriosis? Have any of you had trouble finding a job?
I'm trying to figure out how to word this because there's a lot of legalese because Endo falls within the Americans with Disabilities Act. Keep in mind this same law says pregnancy is a disability.
It is ILLEGAL for a place of work to NOT hire you just because you have Endometriosis. It is ILLEGAL to be fired just because of Endometriosis. It happens. The workplace just can't say that Endo is the only reason you are not being hired or you are being fired. If they say it, they are violating state and federal laws. It may be worth working with a job coach at first, having them see how you are at the job at first and explaining here's how Endo impacts your job performance.
