Company underpaid me while sick, can I demand a check?

Work in a large medical company and have been out for 10 days with covid. I got my check today and saw I wasn’t paid nearly what I normally am. I worked 3 days in the pay period before I left for covid leave. Policy is they take 3 days of PTO and then use sick time for the rest of the time off. I’m looking at the check and all they did was take 12 hours of PTO and they paid me for 23 of my worked hours when I was actually there.They didn’t touch my sick time when I had 60 hours of sick time… I was also supposed to receive a $500 bonus for “employee of the month” and that didn’t go through either. Needless to say I have a family to care for and I am short about $1000+. I plan on walking into my bosses…

Needless to say I have a family to care for and I am short about $1000+. I plan on walking into my bosses office and demanding my money that instant as I have bills to pay and people to care for. Hell most likely say “oh my bad I’ll put it on next pay period” but I literally cannot afford to do that. I am not going to be late on my bills because they shorted me.

I’m so furious and not sure how I can do this without being shafted.
