i started work for a company in march 2008 and had told the trainers,fellow staff members and marked on my application form i was a diabetic.during the 11 months i was there i was absent from work (3 days due to a flu) (14 days due to chest pains,arythmia) (2 days for a virral infection) all covered by gp sick notes and medical letters.even so,i was given extended probation periods,a written warning and finally dismissed.my diabetes during this time was not perfect but there was no support or understanding from my company.i have my case starting in jan 2010 for disability disc. and would like someone to tell me:
1 - am i more vunerable to infections if my diabetes is unstable?
2- am i in the right as my employers presume they are?
3 - do i have to mark i have a disability on my application form because i pressumed diabetes was a hidden disability?
