Bad News

I rang my manager at work today who has been very supportive and sympathetic. I informed her of the conversation I had with my GP last Friday. She had wanted to sign me off work for several months due to the neurological problems I'm having. I said that I would rather be signed off for several weeks at a time so that I keep in contact woth medical services and so that I can decide when I think I'm ready to return to work (which I think may be sometime before I am fully recovered).

However, my manager thinks that if I do have to be off for several months then my contract may be terminated due to the shortness of my service (I only started working there in January this year).

This has been a little distressing to hear but..hey! what can I do about it really? I cannot return to work as I currently am and I don't know how long this will continue for. As soon as I feel able to manage at work I will be back there like a shot!
