I've had burning sensation in both legs all day. It's is extremely uncomfortable. I called in (my boss knows I'm waiting on a diagnosis) today but I feel bad. Others on staff wonder why my attendance is sporadic (I haven't missed a deadline; it is easier to sit at the dining room table than to dress, drive and walk to the office from my car and deal with staffers while so uncomfortable).

I don't want to be someone who misses so much of work and I don't want my professionalism called into question (I already start (and stay!) an hour later than everyone else!). My legs are still burning and I think it would be easier, again, to work from home tomorrow as well.

Anyone else dealing/has dealt with a similar situation? How do you manage symptoms and work?

Your help is appreciated!
