Hello Sandra
I agree with what the other ladies have said. Your health and happiness are far more important than a 'comfortable lifestyle'.
I cannot work and hubby has minimal work but we do get by (on not much over $20,000 pa), our life is simple, as are our pleasures. Yes, it does get me down a bit but not as much as when I am soooooo tired and in pain all the time.
Perhaps you need to reassess the priorities in your life ? It may be difficult at first but better than how you are feeling now. Put your career on hold for a while.
Above all, listen to your body as it is telling you what it needs.
Take care, rest and relax and have a lovely festive season.
Summer :-)
