Hi was due back to work today after 9months m/l. However have told them I am going on s/l and Dr gave me sick line for 1 month citing stress. My manager told me that they will probably send me to Occupational Health. Bit worried about what they might ask and how should I respond?
Background
Have had PND since my daughter was 8wks. We havent had an easy time and the stress had an impact upon my emotional health.
DD had colic, lactose intolerance and severe reflux which only eased 3wks ago. 3 wks ago she also had an operation for a dislocated hip and is now in a body cast for the next 3 months followed by a harness for 3 months.
I really am not trying to take the piss. Before finding out that my DD was having an operation, i had approached work to organise my return and was requesting a 4 day wk. I just dont feel able to go back now and struggle with the thought of leaving my DD. Am experiencing anxiety ie heart palpatations etc.
My work provides full pay for up to 6months and I am afraid that O/H will try to not pay this. Can they do that? Can they make me return earlier? Any advice/experiences welcome
