This is not easy, and makes you feel incompetent, but in the long run it is the best thing to do. Refusing to do what you are asked looks as if you don't want to do it, explaining that you can't and why is a better way to go, and much more readily accepted. I do not know if you have an occupational health department there, but it can also be helpful to involve them if possible.
