What would do if you were told you might have to give up your dream career, because of health conditions.
Say you were told some pretty crappy news from the doctor and that was the outcome.

One thing that might help you is to sit down with a pen and paper (and a nice cup of your preferred non-alcoholic beverage) and write down skills that you've learned in your previous employment that could transfer to other careers.
Try to find examples of project management, problem solving, communication, adaptability and things like that. Once you have that list, you can start looking at careers that these skills might transfer into.

I rather start another business then give Indeed an e-mail. They demand cellphone now and all other on-line job search things.

@HumanEarth I never mentioned Indeed - or anywhere else for that matter.
You got to that conclusion all by yourself.
I said "Once you have your transferable skills written out, you can start looking at which careers might be a good match for you".
I know for a fact that you can look at listings on Indeed without signing up for the site because I have done it myself. So you can look at the job descriptions and compare them with your list to get a good idea of if your skills will transfer well or not.
That way you can get a list of potential job titles that you could do and use that list to look around yourself locally. Then grumble some more at me because I told you to use something like Indeed to your advantage.
