I was taken off work at 10 weeks 5 days for severe ms and a 20 pound weight loss. I'm supposed to return to work on the 20th. I am still very ill most of the day. Anyone having the same experience?
Well, yes. A lot of women suffering from HG have to take time off work, and negotiate accommodations. But I am sure that, as a medical assistant, you are aware of the procedures surrounding these circumstances in your area.
My boss was super awesome about morning sickness (she had amazing accommodations made for her when she had her 2nd child and extends similar accommodations to us because of it) and let me leave early/work weird hours due to almost constant nausea and vomiting while I worked out a medication plan with my doctor. Once my doctor found a plan that worked for me, I was back at work. If you're concerned with the zofran your doctor prescribed and arent confident in your own medical training, talk to your doctor or the OBs you say you work with and figure something out to get you back to being functional.
