I'd like to learn more about strategies for managing heavy business travel from the perspective of addressing challenges of fatigue and loss of "sharpness" that can accompany this type of travel, but need to be worked through to be effectively manage the work at hand.
I am a 38 year old women and was diagnosed with MS in October when I encountered optic neuritis. I was treated with steroids right away and have pretty much felt fine since.
I do know I tire more easily than the average person. And, of course, being tired affects my cognitive abilities. But I don't have any specific issues with mobility.
Now I am considering a new job with extensive (40%) global travel... lots of flights back and forth from Chicago to Europe, Asia, Mid East, S. America.
I have read a lot about MSers managing travel, but its primarily focused on the mobility angle... emphasizing wheelchair use, etc.
Looking for insight from MSers with thoughts on addressing the the cognitive aspects.
