Just yesterday I was talking with several people who head organ donor foundations (seeking to aid those who require an organ donation). One of the things they mentioned was how hard it was for both donation recipients to find a job after their respective medical procedures.

It appears they have to follow strict medical checkups after the operation and thus have to leave work to attend these appointments. As such, many are denied jobs or are conveniently fired from their positions. And even though the law protects them from some of this discrimination it's hard and expensive to prove the discrimination.

There's a pretty large literature on the topic. I'm going for a run but would encourage you to check out 'disease stigma' (not stigmata, which would yield a different set of results!) on your favorite search engine.
