I'm signed off with horrible anxiety and things arent good. Saw GP registrar on Friday and she signed me off for 2 weeks and gave me propranolol which isnt doing much. Told me to come back if things arent better soon. Can't get GP appointment for next week :( so reception gave me appt for Advanced practitioner next friday but I might need a longer sick line 🙁 and maybe more propanalol. Can she prescribe it? Can she write a sick line?? Its all so messy and complicated.
Gah.

The AP can assess you, most can prescribe, am not sure about fitness to work notes, but the APs that I know will do the paperwork and then ask a GP to sign off as needed.

Yes they can. All of those things.
