Breathing Probs and work prob

Posted by drummerjim on July 01, 2005 at 20:46:59:

I was diagnosed in 1987 and am 49. I take Provigil and am wondering if anyone else has difficulty breathing when taking it. Also, I am having a real hard time at work, after over 25 years and 7 in current psotition. They first wanted to discipline me for napping when I traveled. I brought a note from my doctor that said I had no driving restrictions, so they said I was screwing off. So I brought a note from my Dr. that explained in a little more detail including that there are times when I need to nap when driving. So now they say I cannot drive for work anymore, even in my own vehicle. Anyone know an experienced Attorny near Iowa that is affordable and can help me? I'm close to losing my job.
Thanks
