Hi all. I had a cystoscopy and hysteroscopy a week and a half ago in which I was diagnosed with bladder pain syndrome. They filled my bladder up and found abnormal bleeding. I have also previously had a lad for endometriosis. I am due to go to work tommorow but my bladder really hurts and stings feel like I have an infection. Not sure If I should go back to work. Feel if I get another week off I will be taking the piss. Is 2-2and a half weeks off too much for this procedure?

It’s how ever you feel. If you go back to work and feel like you can’t stay and have to leave I’m sure it will count as a different sickness. If you rush back to work you could make yourself worse. I only go back to work when I’ve had a few days of feeling good x
