Advice from people with CFS

[icepole]

I have been off since oct with this. Occupational health advised me that once I was up at home I could start a slow phased return to work. Work said they would give me a maximum of 4 weeks.

I have been up since Thursday and my line runs out this week. I feel a lot better than I did but get waves of feeling bad during the day, they pass if I rest.

When I feel good I feel ready to get back to work. I am just a bit apprehensive. Just wanted to hear from others. I don't want to set myself back but would like to go back. I am a teacher, no place to hide if in suddenly feel unwell.

How have others got on with this?
