It all depends on exactly what the problems arising from your particular condition are.

I my particular case and I have had some trouble with it for over 50 years I have always managed to keep working. and a lot of the work I was involved in was in the building industry and involved strength and physical work. Last year I was forced to have my right elbow replaced, so I have been forced to take it easy on the right arm. However with the medicines and treatments available today and sometimes a little will power, I have been able to keep on working even at my present age of 62. There is no point complaining I always say, no one listens anyway.
