              8 days in hospital last summer and 5 weeks off work in total.
              Serious allergic reaction to antibiotics
              And i went back around 2 weeks too soon.
              I was lucky, they wanted to remove a fairly useful organ, but i responded well to treatment, otherwise it would have been 5 months off

              Clientco kept my role open
              I'm sorry, but I'll make no apologies for this

                Word of advice - Never let a midget female[*] dentist with arms like a stick insect try and extract a tooth, because being physically very weak they end up levering the tooth back and forth ever more desperately until it shatters and half of it is left in!

                (Never taken time off for flu, AKA "a cold".)
