Calling off work with FMLA - still scared
Hi all - Recently diagnosed with Adenomyosis Via MRI after years and years of suffering. Debilitating pain.
I have FMLA for work 2 days/monthly but I still feel so so guilty for calling out. I feel like a whimp but then I look down at my clots and see how I can’t even stand and I try to have self compassion but I wish I could just work like everyone else
Birth control is intolerable for me, rn I’m using Advil, Tylenol and tranexamic acid. Focusing on fiber and protein and less dairy and red meat. I’m still in so much pain :(
I guess I’m just looking to see if I’m alone in this. I’m 31 and considering a hysterectomy rn just seems too extreme 😭 I try so hard to take care of myself and I really love my job. The mental struggles are also so bad. I feel like I’m living a double life since the rest of my month is relatively great (besides literal). Can anyone relate? Tia
