into something new and different. I sound like a broken record but the next hot industry is health and wellness. I have gone back to school to become a nutritionist. There are a lot of avenues to go in that arena from private consultation to sports nutrition to hospital nutrition. The pay is much better than the average pay in MT and it is one of the "hot" jobs of the future in the arena of health and wellness. Check out this website: www.thewellnessrevolution.info and e-mail me to tell me what you think! I'm interested to hear other opinions....I'm just tired of MT and I'm excited to be on the cutting edge of a new and "good for you" job.

Disability/PPI rating for retraining
Possibly with bona fide proof of this having been your livelihood, maybe you could check out a retraining program for people with disabilities, in our state it's called Voc Rehab, these programs are state funded. They may also offer you some assistance for some treatment or surgery. They actually insist in many cases that while they're paying for retraining that do get treatment and help for the disability to bring you up to a functional capacity. These programs are there to rehab you and get you back to working in a capacity that serves you. You could also try a local unemployment offices for possibly getting retraining help. If you can't use a mouse and type you can't hardly think it's going to get better. Better to get retrained when you can't work in your chosen field. You could get retrained say in coding if you wanted to stay within this field. Maybe even consider SSI for a disability rating to get some income while being retrained. Sometimes it's really okay to crash and ask for help. You brought up a little bit of reality today. Best to you.
