So I have been off sick with concussion and I still feel pretty awful. Last night I suddenly felt terrible, really sick and dizzy. I almost went back to hospital but I felt (relatively) better after a couple of hours.

I have responsibility for producing a couple of magazines at work. if I'm not better in three weeks they are going to have to get temps to do the whole thing. I am so worried about being sidelined or even losing my job. I tried to go back to work 3 weeks after the accident but I lasted half a day! I can't help worrying that they will think I'm malingering.
