<blockquote data-quote="Squeekyboy" data-source="post: 1127586" data-attributes="member: 224449"><p>[USER=211504]@TorqPenderloin[/USER]- Hi, My name is Steve,(user name Sqeekyboy, yes spelt with two e's) I am T2 & went back to work just six months ago. I spoke with HR & my manager at work, prior to returning & on the day I went back, I was told I only need stay for a half day but I stayed all day, as received a few calls from colleagues, who welcomed me back & were very supportive. I still felt uncomfortable though, as I'd been off work for 3.5 months. The thing is, you could ask if you could split the return back as I did, that made it a much easier return, as I worked every other day & that gave me time to rest in-between days & think my way back into work gradually. your life is changing & you need your meds etc. so it will take a little time to get things right but more importantly, don't rush things at work, take every thing in you stride, until you feel you are back to normal. It's taken me four months to get things right but younger people may take less. I wish you well. keep in touch if you like but no pressure. Squeekyboy.</p></blockquote><p></p>
