daffy654		(Sat 12:44 04/Jul/09) What the heck is 'pre-post menstrual syndrome'? I am a 41 year old female and i've never heard of that one! Why would itchiness in your ear stop you from working?
pink-kittens		(Sat 13:57 04/Jul/09) A C&P but these are the symptoms: Stomach upsets, swelling, diarrhea or constipation headaches Changes in anxiety or depression or food cravings Breast swelling and tenderness Anxiety or depression Fatigue and trouble sleeping Joint or muscle pain Stress, irritability, mood swings Lack of concentration Sugestions as to what causes this are limited and also readly available inforamtion is out there for you to find your own treatment. Have you had this all the time you have been working? Do you know what causes your pre-post menses? An ohs is a pre-employment evaluation isnt it? What are they only doing one on you now or is it to assess whether you are fit for working where you do?
Rosetta		(Sat 14:09 04/Jul/09) I wouldn't have thought any or all of the above conditions would entitle you to retirement on medical grounds A C&P------- could anyone translate that please?

Rosetta		(Sat 14:16 04/Jul/09) lol hc4361, I thought it was something medical duh.

wolf63		(Sat 16:18 04/Jul/09) I went off sick on 30/10/03 with Bipolar Disorder. Because I worked as a Civil Servant the rules and procedures were set down. I had regular meetings with my line manager and I was advised that one of the following would happen:- I would return to work feeling better. I would have my employment terminated with a small lump sum being payable. This would be due to my inefficiency due to not being at work. **I would receive medical retirement on health grounds. Eventually I went to see an OHS doctor who, without, hesitation said that I was unfit to work in any capacity. But this was perhaps August of 2004. It is not easy to get medical retirement on health grounds and you have to have a serious illness that is not likely to be cured. Your Union rep should be able to give you some guidance on this matter. What was the result of the OHS in March?
pink-kittens		(Sat 19:36 04/Jul/09) LOL @ C&P being a medical something; sorry thought it was well known shortening =) I've just re-read the symptoms and realise that I have each and every one of them once a month, they are certainly becoming worse as I get older but I have never had a day off sick for them. They are all controllable with OTC medicines (over the counter) and by themselves would not entitle anyone to be retired on medical grounds

Postdog		(Sun 14:48 05/Jul/09) I only know S & M,pink. I thought it was medical too.
