Doctors Response

[Grneyes79]

Hello, I am lucky enough to manage myself to work part time, however every year I have coughs, colds, chest infections and sinus infections. . I qualify for flu and COVID vaccinations from my Doctors and believe that my immune system is compromised due to my illnesses. I asked my Doctors for a letter stating this so I can get some kind of Absence leniency from work.

This is the response.

Would love to hear your opinion.

Thanks Dawn.

Dear Mrs [ redacted name ] ,Dr [redacted doctor ] has looked at your letter and unfortunately your conditions Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, Fibromyalgia and Hashimotos Disease are not classed as immuno-suppressive conditions and he is therefore unable to do a letter to state this.

Thank you Admin

Think you need to blank out all the names in case anyone knows who you are talking about!

[helvella Administrator in reply to Fruitandnutcase]

I have redacted the names.

Best thing to do is report so as to draw attention from any admin who is around!
