Hello everyone. I tried searching through the sub, but didn’t really find anything about the actual process.
I need to take FMLA. I am MISERABLE at my job and my co-workers are treating me like shit. I need to get an MRI due to prolonged dizziness which I suspect is from severe tension and stress (yes I’ve already tried PT, massage, ENT, urgent care – finally got an in depth ear test but anyway) I cry almost every day at work.
My question is, do I need to let my employer know first this is something I want to do? They provide FMLA.
Do I go to my doctor first? I printed off the WH-380-E form. Can I just take that into my PCP and ask them to fill it out?
Afterwards, can I choose how long I’m out/if it’s intermittent or consecutive?
Just lost on the process but want to get started on it and do it right because I am on the cusp of a mental breakdown.
Thanks for any help anyone can provide and sorry if there is a better sub out there for answers on this.
