Struggling with work
Hi
first post on here for me ,
was diagnosed with pa 2 years ago after years of back pain , Ankylosing spondylitis
ive missed time in work due to back pain and unfortunately it’s just gone again, I know it’s gonna be like this in pain and struggling with mobility for next week or so , I’m at the verge of leaving my employment due to this, I can’t keep letting my employer down and I feel like the work I do is making my condition worse as it involves a lot of walking lifting, I’m confused what best to do and what benefits I could claim if I did finish work , has anyone been in the same position and can offer any advice?
thanks for any help

Thanks for help,
got myself in a bit of a pickle I think, 1,
I’ve only been with this firm for 6 months and didn’t tell them about my RA when asked about any existing conditions as worried they would not take me on .
2nd
I have a universal credit claim ongoing from when lost job through covid i don’t receive Much from them as working full time , not sure wether to put it in my journal what I’m going through or to go and speak to cab first ?
sorry for all the questions just have no idea what to do so if anyone has been in the same kind of predicament would love to hear from you
thanks 🙏
