I'm worried about my job for one. I just missed two days of work. I don't have a lot of sick time but it should be considered vacation time before it's "unpaid."

I spent all day yesterday (Tuesday) at the ER (7am until past 7pm) having tests run. I have kidney stones on my left side - they're small though. While I was there, I had another "episode" where my heart hurt like crazy. The nurse happened to be in and she hooked me up to monitors and an ekg immediately and everything seemed to be normal... just like last time though, only the nitro under my tongue made it go away.

In December I started the paperwork for FMLA-intermittent to allow me 1-2 days per month for my illness (migraines and this heart thing) to be out. HR said it was approved, then nothing ever happened. My manager was leaving so I asked if they needed anything else - HR said they never got the final form. So my manager sent it in 2 weeks ago on his final day as my manager. I'm afraid his carelessness is going to cost me my job. I do have all the emails between me and HR though.

Sorry this got so long. Could you all say a prayer that my job stays safe, my health improves and I do not have a repeat of last year, and that overall I feel better?
