Yes, your GP should be able to give you one that will last a number of months. The products you use in your cleaning job are likely to be making your breathing worse as well. Ask your GP about that. Aerosols, strong perfumes are the usual culprits.
If you're in the UK you can ring the BLF helpline for advice. 03000 030555
I think you need to look at your work contract, some employers pay sick pay, some don't, some state 'at managers discretion', some pay for a certain length of time & then you have to claim statutory sick pay which isn't enough to live on. Are you a member of a union you can seek advice from? Good luck to you. P
If your in the UK yes you are def entitled to it xx
