[QUOTE="buddy, post: 519592, member: 12886"] Hi there, sorry this is happening. Please do not release your records. They can twist things. You might suggest that if he has specific concerns he can write them in a letter and you are willing to get the answers to those specific questions. That way he can't go on any fishing expedition. If he refuses you can just follow the letter of the law and get the doctor's note. Is it linked only to weight? If you are eating better that would be the most important, right? I hope you dont mind if I ask this, but do you think maybe it is time to just take a leave so that you are not denied tenure. I think that what is likely to happen is, if they can't legally dismiss you now, when your tenure decision comes up it will be denied and then you will be out of your job permanently in that district. Those are union rules usually because otherwise they can drag tenure decisions out and people are left hanging. If you choose to take a year's leave, how would that affect you instead? Since you have applied for disability that could be a way for you to actually get better. You seem to be saying you really are not ready to go back to work anyway. Forcing on some weight then freaking out about it does not sound like it will help you and of course that is what I (and I am not the one who has to pay your mortgage I know....) am more concerned about. HUGS my friend, I hope this goes your way..... [/QUOTE]
