Potential new employment: when to bring 'it' up

Although some say they have fatigue from RT, I did not. I worked throughout two months of SRT, managing the usual flood of communications, details,
and deadlines that went with my job as a bid manager/proposal writer. My employer did know, but only because I needed to manage logistical arrangements because of the distance and opposite directions from my house to get to the hospital and to work. I can't speak to the possibility of mental sharpness issues with ADT. I was on Casodex during my radiation, with no mental sharpness decline, but I don't know first-hand what the effects of Lupron might be.

My hospital was able to slot me in for 8. a.m., which helped with my work schedule. Though there were a couple of times with them running late due to personnel or equipment issues and one day I had my appointment shifted to afternoon due to the hospital needing my time-slot for an in-hospital patient.

Thanks for everyone's input. I have time to mull it over...also I'd like to hear what the wifey thinks. She normally has more sense in these things than I do.

Thought I'd let you guys know how it went. Offer rec'd. We went back and forth a bit on terms, but before I accepted, I called him and said, basically:

" I have a medical condition. I have been getting treatment and will continue for the near/mid term. I don't foresee it affecting my work performance."

My soon to be supervisor was very understanding, and greatly appreciated me telling him, offered all the support he could and gave assurances there is no problem.

He also shared that he has stage-4 cancer.......go figure.

Sounds like you have a good situation where you are, but as you say there are no guarantees about extending your contract. And the new position sounds good for the increase. Obviously your call. How do you feel physically now? Do you think (crystal ball time) future medical treatments will effect your ability to work and give 100%. My only though is to take a piece of paper and draw the line down the middle and pros and cons to both. That often give an answer right there. I would not make a decision until you do get that offer and as someone said maybe take that offer back to current boss and maybe get a raise at current boss. Good luck and I hope you make the best decision for you
