How to get a new job with DBA

I just started a new job this week. I was kind of nervous because it was the first job I had looked for after coming out of remission with DBA.

I know based on the Americans with Disabilities Act that you cannot be discriminated against for having a chronic disease and I'm the type that doesn't like to spring things on people. But at the same time I needed a job.

So I went through the interview process and, during the phone call where I was offered the job, I said "Oh by the way, I have this disease and I need to work out with you times for me to get treatment". I was told that there would be no problem.

My new manager said that this was the perfect way to handle it. So if any of you DBAers are looking for a new job and don't know when to tell your new employer - this way worked for me.
