Back to work

Hi everybody, hope you’re all safe and well...it’s not be easy my return to work. My neurologist said that I can’t make night shifts but they we’re giving me least hours I’m suppose to do 32 to 35 hours a week, and I was doing 12 to 15 hours a week. So I talk to them and they start given me more hours, but night shifts. The brain tumour damage me a little bit, because of the epilepsy I have troubles in concentration, confusion all kind of this annoying things. Some colleagues treat me in a way that I don’t like, so It’s being very stressful I just wish I could stay at home, and avoid people. The good news is that I’m six months seizure free, the medication is working I have another appointment in October. I’m like Dory from finding Nemo, I’m always, always forgetting things 🙂 so I just “keep swimming...just keep swimming!! By everybody stay safe and take care 💖😘

I suggest you ask to be referred to Occupational health who will do an assessment and recommend any adjustments required to assist you at work
Let us know if there is anything else we can help you with, there is a lot of information on here about reasonable adjustments
Hello Yes I talk to the general manager and she knows my condition
I was thinking asking to the neurologist on the next appointment to add this matter on the report, that he always send to me. She din’t ask me anything but maybe it will work, If not I have to do something to get a reasonable adjustment the night shifts are really heavy for me and I’m starting to have trouble sleeping.
I’m going ask to be referred to the occupational health
