Request Best Rest?
Can I request to be on bed rest?
And can a doctor's Deny me?
I am about 34 weeks 2 days.
And started to develop really bad anxiety the beginning of January. (On medication for it)
Also have history of headaches, but lately
Discussed with my doctor about light- headedness and blacking out1 - one time.
I have alot of physical pain and went to L&D about 3x this trimester.
Swelling, shortness of breath, & physical pain is what I experience daily on top on all that.
However, the physical pain don't bother Me as much as the mental pain.
My anxiety is easily triggered and causes panic attacks. Must sit down, get light headed and dizziness. Heart starts to pound out my chest and I feel all my hairs standing up.. I am on medication to help, but nothing is working...
I am so stressed out at work and I experience episode like this through out the day. I'm afraid I am stressing my baby out.
At this point, I feel myself falling into depression, because this is not me in nature at all...
I am a shut your mouth get it done type girl..
But this anxiety is becoming uncontrollable and the stress levels at work is extremely high... to the point I feel like walking out , giving up all my leave time for FMLA , just to be sane.
My doctor is aware of these issues... and all is documented...
Every time I think about this I cry, I feel so embarrassed that this is a thing. Honestly don't know what else to do...
My job is not helping me or being considerate at all.... ie, after 8 months of sitting in a chair, they are now requesting a doctor's note... thats how petty they are being... I don't mind getting a doctor's, but they decided to tell me the day after my doctor's appt. Now I don't have another one until 2 weeks.
Could I request to be on bedrest
And can the doc deny me...
I need help 🥺
