Guest guest Posted July 29, 2000 Report Share Posted July 29, 2000 I work for a Human Resources department of a very large entertainment company. Sometimes, it is very difficult to sue a company. But my recommendation to you, is get a note from your doctor documenting your condition. This is the strongest weapon you could have. It would stand up in court and it also would send a clear message to your employer. If worse comes to worse, you could always persuade your doctor to take you out on a disability. OR in a non-threatening way, maybe just gently dropping the buzz word " sue " in front of your boss.....it would scare the bageebies out of her. Even a famous, huge entertainment company like the one I work for, will do ANYTHING to avoid litigation. I am only tossing my observations out to you and by no means am urging you to take legal action. You must weigh the pros and cons of your current situation. Sometimes we try to convince ourselves that we need to stay in our present jobs because of the money or stability.....but the biggest blessing in disguise for me a year ago was when I was suddenly let go from a job I had worked at for 13 years. It devestated me, but now in retrospect, I am able to see it was the best thing for me. Good luck and TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF. ~debbie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted September 27, 2009 Report Share Posted September 27, 2009 I don't know the English justice system, other than what I saw on Rumpole, but here, in the US, I believe any doctor who is aware of LDN, and doesn't at least discuss and offer it is negligent. There is just too much information out there now to be ignored any longer. I know, I know. No studies, trials, or science. My response as a lawyer is I don't give a damn. Sue anyway if the scenario warrants it, especially for those idiots who refuse to prescribe it. Dave in Pa.-USA olddad68@... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
