Unsure what to do at this point.
Hi,
I’ve been on an employer’s WO for two weeks for a stress related injury that occurred at work. So far they check on me every week to see if I’m fit to go back to work.
Lately, my health has gotten worse. I don’t sleep anymore, I have yellow eyes, and the thought of going back to work sends me into a tailspin it takes days to recover from.
What kinds of questions should I be asking my doctor to actually help me? Sleeping pills are definitely on the list.
Secondly, does this type of stress commonly go away on comp or do I have a bigger problem? Should I even be planning to go back to my employer if the stress is this bad?
