Hi Vicky,
Please get as much info as you can and research it properly.
I’m not a medic, I have not had the GnRH injection but I did have the 3 month contraception injection which made my hair fall out and other bad symptoms. I had to wait for months until the injected med wore off.
This is only my opinion. if somebody takes a 3 month injection and it makes symptoms worse they could need three months to recover and be unable work.
Would your employer pay your full net salary for 3 months if you were too ill to do your job? Your contract should state this, if not the HR department will provide the details of the scheme they use. Please check that you qualify for the scheme. Paying salaries to sick employees is very often referred to as ‘discretionary’ so decided on a case by case basis.
Statutory Sick Pay is £99.35 per week and is paid by your employer for 28 weeks, it’s pathetically low.
Do you have savings to pay standard living costs until you can return to work?
Maybe you have family, friends and partner who will support you financially.
I’m not asking you for personal info, just stuff for you to think about.
Sorry for long post. X
