I have had 2 days off work this wk due to endo pain. It was excruciating bowel pain this morning that subsided to a dull bloats feeling. As you do not know when and how bad the flares are it's difficult to make an informed decision whether to phone in sick as it can just be a couple of hours of bad pain.......
So I am dreading my return to work interview tomorrow. I really feel bad especially as I had a nervous breakdown in January due to a bad reaction of an anti depressant/anxiety and stress had about 3 and a half months of work and work was very supportive. But I know their support can only run so long and though I am suffering in affect 2 conditions I don't want them to think I am taking advantage and that I don't want to work......life this year has been really hard that everything has just gone to breaking point!
I am scared they won't understand or that I hVe a disciplinary because of endo and my mental health....that's my rant over.
I am sure I am not the only one who has felt like this. Sometimes I actually question myself and wonder if I should have pushed myself harder.......before I had my diagnosis (3 months ago) I would go and hide in the toilets at work when I felt a pain/episode coming along and really struggled with work. I have taken so many painkillers I am now addicted to codeine and on a programme to reduce the amount I take every 2 wks. Therefore, pain relief hardly works now for me as I have abused it! The dr has now prescribed me naproxen to try , again, even though I have told her it didn't work last time......it's like here we go again! So yeah, here go again..........rant truly over now 🤐
