Hi, i’m 21 weeks today but the past four days i’ve been soooo ill with what i think is a cold. It feels more severe than a normal cold i usually get. I’ve worked the last four days through it. I’m off today but back tomorrow and i don’t feel like it’s getting any better yet. I’m exhausted, got a terrible cough and nose is blocked and streaming! throat is sore also. Terrible headache. What makes it all worse is that i work within the nhs and even had patients refusing me to go in consultations with them yesterday because im clearly ill and they are vulnerable which is completely understandable! even colleagues were asking why I was there but i’m made to feel guilty about phoning in by management. Considering i’ve had terrible morning sickness up until 20 weeks and just powered through at work. I’m worried i’m not getting enough rest for the baby and i’m incredibly anxious anyway so every little thing makes me worry. I’m not sure whether to ring in sick tomorrow because i’d normally just dose myself up and get on with it with a cold but i’m really struggling, probably due to the fact that i am pregnant and can’t just take what i want to get through it, plus tired anyway. What would you do? thanks
