Ouch, sounds very painful. How on earth did you manage to do it?! I guess time off work isn’t too bad but I bet you have a nervous twitch everytime the girls come near it in case they hurt it more! Lots of pain free vibes.

Helen, so sorry to hear about your arm. Re your comment on 2 of your 3 weeks you were already off, Karen & Joyce are quite right they can’t make you take holiday time while off sick and it applies to everyone not just NHS.
I hope you are not in too much pain and wish you much speedy healing.

very gentle hugs from me and Tim sends huge amounts of sympathy/empathy for the non-castable break….. he recommends comfrey oil massaged all round it.

She is – that’s NHS policy, but you need to get a dr sick line (not a self cert), in pdq.

Now there’s a thought. Hope Karen is right!

(((Helen))) I thought that if you are off sick even if you have booked holidays the sick leave takes precedent and you should still be owed your two weeks holiday? I would check it with personnel Dept. Get well soon.
