I made it 3 and a half hours before I got sick, one, I just stood up no gas pains nothing, and had diarrhea all over myself, like I said no gas no nothing, I was so afraid to tell my boss that I had to go home to clean up, but he let me go, but my stomach is in knots and I feel it could happen again. I was banded on Monday. I should be able to work right? Did I over do it? :tongue:

Maybe I should call and ask them.. this company is shy of 50 people...its unpaid???

If you have sick time or vacation time you usually can use that. It is not a form of paid leave. Just a law that doesn't punish people for having to take time off for illness, caring for a child or parent, or under going medical treatment.

I would have had to put in for it prior to my surgery, but, Ive been out a lot during the past year, cause Ive been sick. A lot, thus the reason I got the lap band. Every time I would go into work I had a note, I have fibromyalgia, and that put me out a lot, and the fact I have a 2 year old who gets a cold and somehow magically I get it, doesnt help. So, I used up all my vacation time and my sick time. Ive been there a little over a year, I only got 5 sick days, and 5 vacation days. Not much really. Thats why I fear that they will let me go when I go back tomorrow. I guess, Im not really upset about it. Cause like I said prior I want to go back to school.

Liquids in, liquids out did NOT apply to me. I was so constipated after surgery, I called the doctor in tears 6 days later and in pain!!! Sorry I can't relate to the loose poo, but I really think you overdid it going back to work. Take care of yourself!!! You just had major surgery. I was out for 10 days, and still could have used a couple more.
