Can You Be Sacked For Being of With MS?

My symptoms are acting up this morning numb arm and weird vision. Work has been so stressful I think that's the cause of it. So left my manager a voice mail this morning. He then left me one back telling me to call him. I was shocked tbh because hes never wanted to question my ms before. So I tried calling him not long after, twice. But he didnt answer. It's been 4hrs now and hes not got in touch with me. I'm worrying he will moan I didn't call back even when I did and that he will try and question my symptoms. Can you get sacked for something like this?

@coupes_corner Slow down a little.... please. Stress isn't good for you. You've called him, he didn't answer wait for him to call you. But make sure you follow the companies sick procedure. Make an appointment with your GP or MS nurse. You can self cert for a few days. If you're ill you're ill MS or not as long as you keep everyone informed then you have protection under the law. If you have a union speak to them they will be able to help you. Have you informed your company you have MS? You don't have to but it will make them aware of your problems and the reason for them. Just calm down a little. Nothing is going to change overnight. As long as you follow the rules . Hope you get it sorted out soon 😀

@highlander thank you. The company know I have it yes. It's never been an issue before which is why I was shocked today when he left me a message. I've tried calling him again just now, still no answer so sent him a text. Fingers crossed that's following procedure enough.
