watching football . you change yet ? <| sep |> Whoops , maybe wasn ' t clear , but diarrhea started about a year ago along with the diabetes diagnosis . No one has been able to figure out what it is , but the GI doc is saying diabetic diarrhea . I only had a colonoscopy , no nearby university with a diabetes center as far as I know , I ' m in CT . I ' m not looking to get SSDI , I ' m just concerned about having to sit in an office and work instead of home on my toilet . I ' m mostly worried about not being able to perform my job because I ' m in the bathroom all day and being laid off for it . The drive to and from work is a minor concern also if I get stuck in traffic or something . I ' m thinking more and more that I ' m going to have to involve HR just so I can have some sort of coverage if someone says something to be about my performance . I doubt it is going to help , but I don ' t know what else to do at this point . My ultimate win here would be to get the condition fixed so I could get back to somewhat normal , and I ' m still working toward that , but it ' s been a year so far with no luck so I ' m terrified that this is permanent .
