A couple W's on your transcript is minor and easily explained as due to medical issues. You would likely not even need to explain beyond that. Getting low grades will effect your GPA.

My first semester college grades were destroyed by my struggles with one intense honors class. Second semester, I struggled even worse and dropped one class and did miserably in another resulting in an unrecoverable drop in GPA. I entered college as an honors student. Stress loads and a concussion at the beginning of my second semester did me in.

So, I think you are better off taking time to heal and get a strong start later.

Would you be allowed to audit any classes ? It might be beneficial.
