i had a reaction to a vaccine, and i am in the worst pain of my lift. the doctor told me to severely limit-if at all- any arm movement to avoid serious injury. i told this to my retail employer, as the job involves intense heavy lifting and raising arms to hang clothing. i was told off to the point that i gave up and agreed to work. i’m terrified because i could ruin my shoulder. the same thing happened when i was recovering from a broken spine- i wasn’t allowed to sit even though i was told by my physical therapist that i could re-break my spine and become paralyzed if i stood too long or exerted myself. i’m so tired of this.
