    Well, I just fell over cos that's how dizzy I'm feeling right now! Don't think I've had pain like this since I got kicked in the nuts once at school!

    Worst part is: GP's are closed tomorrow morning, so I can't even go off sick tomorrow to get sorted

    Re: tired....

    get work to pay for you to goto a private GP because you came in today?

    imoh they should compensate you somehow, and getting you fixed is a good way.

    Go to a different one then. Ear infections are painful, but they're wonderfully easy to diagnose and prescribe for.

    My work has payed for a couple of guys to see private specialists because of knee problems.

    It could be argued that it was because of their football or rugby playing, but equally it could have been because of working in awkward places and kneeling on hard surfaces and gratings quite a lot.

    I was having to work crazy hours for my previous employer, as such they paid and arranged for me to see a dr at 9pm (when i'd finished) and my then private prescription (which was well into 3 figures, serityde isn't cheap).

    If the department you work in is small enough, and you really shouldn't be at work in the first place its not only the least you can do, but it minimizes your down time.
