Almost a month Jan 5, 2019

I took a break in November because I had gotten too stressed out (actually ended up in the hospital for 3 days with scary symptoms), but all is well now and I'm back in business and never felt better.

Other than this recent event, I can never remember being too sick to work.

1-5 days Jan 5, 2019

I had a pelvic fracture in January last year as a consequence of a fall at home, it wasn’t serious and though it was extremely painful and it took a long time to heal I could go on working, except for 2 or 3 days (as a coincidence I had no work). Otherwise, like Muriel, I can’t remember being so sick that I couldn’t work...

3 days Jan 5, 2019

Only because I was admitted to the hospital, but I still kept up with my emails.

General anaesthetic... Jan 5, 2019

A few, but none professionally Jan 5, 2019

I had a cold, a few migranes, etc. as usual. But considering the meaning of "sick days" for professional purposes, none, because I worked regularly in all of them.

30+ Jan 5, 2019

I fell at home and broke my right hand and index finger. I couldn't work for 30 days and I have to go twice a week to the physiotherapist. Though I am regularly working now, it will take some 6 months more to recover from my fractures.
The last sick days I had taken were 11 years ago when I had surgery.

What precisely is this asking? Jan 6, 2019

Did I have paid sick days?
Then the answer is none. If I don't work, I don't get paid.

Was I sick?
Yes. But I didn't count the days.
