I have a very painful foot. Got three fairly serious things wrong with it which causes me to walk slowly and painfully for much of the time and, sometimes, to feel rather sluggish and tired. The condition has worsened over the past few weeks. Getting help - but it could be months and months before things ease.
Immediate colleagues know - no big deal and my job doesn't necessarily require me to be doing very much other than sitting at a desk and seeing people across a table. A few times a week I have to be more active.
I am wondering about whether I should let my line manager know or, at least, Occupational Health. There's nothing the latter could do for me but maybe I should have something on the record in case I need to leave early or take a couple of days off?
Part of me wants to soldier on - I have up to now but today, in town, I was in so much pain that these thoughts came to me. Thanks for any suggestions/thoughts!
