Background: I've been sick with something since late December probably and I've been given multiple antibiotics and medicine. I will always get better, then immediately catch something else.
More recently (Like 2 days ago) I woke up (after finishing antibiotics 10 days ago) knowing that I'm sick again. So yesterday I went ahead and left work early (only worked 4 hours) to go to the doctor. Given, my place of work is 1.5 hours away from my house. On the way home I started to nod off and was concerned, especially since I slept around 8 hours the night before. My temp at the doctor was 99.8 degrees farenheit (which is high for me) and the doctor wanted to run tests on me. So he wanted me to come back today, so I had to call in for work for that and becuase my temp/I wasn't feeling well.
I still feel tired today and feel like crap today.. I don't know if I want to call in for tomorrow. My main concern is that I will get tired after working for 8 hours and I don't want to nod off on the drive home. I do have a doctors note to miss today and tomorrow, so I probably could. My doctor said I could go to work if I felt like it.
I don't know... I feel bad for calling in but I want to rest and don't want to risk the drive. Also I work with kids and don't want to get them sick (1 of the kids recently got sick also)
Advice? (If I call in I have to do it this afternoon)
