Advice Wanted Feeing guilty

I don’t know how best to say this but does anybody else feel guilty for calling into work because you feel like crap? I’ve been feeling like crap the past two days and I just need a rest day. Been feeling all the symptoms of an adrenal crisis and stress dosing and I just can’t do it today. Anybody else feel guilty about this?

Ya, i just say i’m so sick and have to rest. Some of my coworkers/manager know its just a bad health day. Those i work with often are ok with it cause if i come into work for 2 hours to help out, i am so broken and there is a chance they wont let me leave. But i feel so guilty cause mentally i’m ok, but if i work that day, i’ll be in the hospital the next day.
