Finding a Job with EDS: Suggestions Needed

What kind of job, if you are working, fits your physical health when living with EDS? I am trying to find one so I don't have to keep my cycle of working for a few months then quitting because my body is getting worse. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated 😊

I am a home health worker. Since I have had all my issues I have a hard time working. Not supposed 2 but someone has 2 pay my bills and SSI takes forever. It's not much moving around to do what I do.

I was able to work part time virtually for about a year before my health took a sudden turn for the worse. Before that I couldn’t find anything in person that I could handle. Virtual was great because I could manage symptoms while working. This particular job was as an administrative assistant in public health, but there are so many virtual options of course. I’m hoping once I stabilize again I might be able to return to the working world, but it would definitely have to be something virtual. It is also a huge plus if you can choose your own hours or if it has flexible hours
