Last July I suddenly & spontaneously started having seizures, and was diagnosed with epilepsy. Work said I wasn't fit for work until my seizures were under control (I work in a lab). Finally got control of them in January, went through return to work procedures, took a few weeks of annual leave that I had accrued, & then was supposed to start back at work.
Unfortunately, 2 weeks before I was due back I ended up being admitted to a mental health ward. I've been here 12 weeks now.
I've just had a letter from work saying they have arranged an Ill Health (capability hearing) for next week.
I'm thinking that giving up work is probably the best thing to do. I hope it is anyway.
The question I have is that would it be better to go through with the capability hearing & get dismissed, it would it be better just to hand my notice in?
Any help very much appreciated!
