Not necessarily, just make sure you look ill, but fed up and missing work when you go in 
Hope it goes alright!

Do you intend or feel ready to go back to work? Looking at their point of view 10 months is a long time to lose the use of an employee, i take it they are still paying you? They might ask you to leave, but dont let them pressure you into returning to work if you dont feel ready. Anyway, good luck for tomoz.

Ditto what SetH's said really.
If you're making good progress as far as the GP's, etc are concerned then they can't really use that as an excuse for sacking you surely?

if they aren't paying you then they should give you all the time you need to recover fully, not like its costing them anything!
