Cognitive Disability?

I know most here are in the UK and the laws are different but has anyone (especially stateside) been able to get disability for the effects of MS on your cognitive functions; memory, concentration, etc.. ?

My career is software development, which is a fairly mental activity, but I’ve been fired twice this year and I seem to be having a hard time focus, concentrating and learning for my job the last few years. Wondering if I can still perform in my career or what my options are

@LightningDuck , we have to learn to manage our fatigue and work within the limitations that the fatigue imposes. You may find that you are more mentally alert through the morning, so you should arrange any meetings/calls before lunch. See if you can grab a nap at lunchtime to set you up for the afternoon. Or even just work mornings........
