So I have a medical condition that makes me very sick once in a while--this will be hopefully fixed ASAP. It usually happened on weekends in the past , so only work was affected. I didn't get into trouble because i missed work like 2 or 3 times a semester. I got sick the first time, and missed my quiz (5% of grade). She said she didn't allow make-ups (even though she allowed my friend make it up) and said i would be fine since i was doing well in class. So i went from a 99% to an 89%. Anyways I brought it up to 93%.
I was really sick on the day of the 4th exam, stomach pain, and i was throwing up. I took Ibuprofen which didn't work. I told my teacher like an hour before that i wouldn't be able to make it. she replied later that needed a doctor's note. However, I didn't go to the doctor because I was really sick, and couldn't even walk to the hospital. I didn't think i needed to since i knew what was wrong, so i just stayed home and let it pass. Now i don't know what to do. The exam is like 15% of my grade. This is my first time dealing with things like this. I dont think she understands that i have no plans on getting a C in this class, very easy one btw. I dont mean to sound degrading, but GPA is important and all. I have already had my fair share of B's. I am a little frustrated because it feels like i am being punished for things i have no control over.
