When I discovered I had kidney problems I was a model. That was put on hold once I had a nefrostomy tube and drain fitted for ten months whilst I awaited surgery. Its now looking likely according to my GP that dialysis is not too far away. I asked a few questions but mostly got the response of speak to consultant. But if anyone could help me with the benefit of their experiences I would be most grateful.
If I work full time, would hospital let me have dialysis after working hours? I appreciate that's cheeky but I want to remain working, although I appreciate health should come first I still have a family to keep and I don't want to claim benefits.
Am I legally required to tell prospective new employers about my kidney problem and possible lots of time off work. Am concerned prospective employers may refuse me on basis that I am sick.
Would rather stay at my current profession but my agent said no chance I would get work if I have a chest line. So I going to prepare myself now so it's not such a shock later.
