So my place of employment are stickelers for attendence. I've had multiple appts and time off for my feet in the last month. Thats fine, and now its almost over with. They hate that I'm gone but it was needed. But in the last 2 weeks I've had to call in for a migraine once and I had a Dr's appt yesterday morning and was gone until noon. I have an appt this evening which I would have had to leave early, and out of luck (for me) I got another appt this morning for something unexpected.
All they know is I've told them I've had appts. But three in two days? I didn't get a note for the last one (yesterday) Should I get notes/proof I actually had the two today? Should I tell my boss what is going on? I was thinking maybe just explaining to her that I'm not always like this. I'm not a hypo or a sicky, its just an unexpected coincidence that this is all going on right now. Should I explain that to her or would it be stupid of me?

If you feel you can speak to your boss, then yeah tell her, it can be difficult sometimes as some things are a bit personal, try not to worry too much, i think its like 7 days off sick in a row that you need an actual doctors note anyway but dont quote me on that!
Thank you
