I've had my first infertility test letter for the hospital, with all the expected detailed content of it being for fertility difficulties,
To attend a hospital we are required to bring in the medical letter by work. it feels like a very personal level of detail to have to share, does anyone have an experience of this? Am I being a little precious?I can't get round this with annual leave unfortunately.
I know there will come a time i'll have to tell my boss and i'm sure he'll be fine, but for now i'd rather not!

Can you make a copy with the important parts blanked out? Take the original with you incase they arnt happy with the blanked version and say as it's a sensitive matter you'd prefer not to share but you can If it's the only way?

Hey @orangeflamingo1 just seen your post and I can relate!

Nope. Your not being too precious at all! I work mostly with men and had no idea how bitchy most of them are until I started working with them..anyway, I asked my hospital about the appts during work and they told me they can delete the ACU details (like PP said) and as it’s situed next to the gynae clinic then if anyone was to ask say it’s a Gynae thing 😊 they get asked all the time so I’m guessing a lot of us have issues of attending appts during work / bosses that don’t approve? Who knew eh! X

I get that. I blanked out the gory details however when I finally did tell work the reason thy were incredibly supportive.
