Decided to call in sick for tomorrow. The de-toothified area is quite painful and swollen - I think I'd be fine working in a standard office job, but having to speak all day with a sore mouth does not sound fun. The dental surgeon was a bit confusing about his recommendations for time off - verbally he told me I'd be fine to go back to work almost straight away, but he wrote me a certificate for three days off.
You have a med cert for three days, so take the three days :)
I am in a workplace where we can use a stat dec for sick leave, and we can also sign stat decs for each other, so having a certificate or not isn't really an issue I factor in!
