Just text my boss to say I won't be in today (been feeling bad for a few days - tonsillitis+ diabetes) thus triggering a first-stage attendance hearing. (feddit.uk)

So I'm feeling pretty bad, guilty and on top of that extremely tired and well, poorly.

How's your day/night going?

Look at this another way. If they force you to come in, that is illegal containment. If they yell at you for taking sick leave then that is a hostile environment that you should leave ASAP. Try to look for other opportunities. You should never have to feel guilty for taking off work due to illness unless that illness is caused by sheer stupidity on your side (like overdrinking or running naked in the rain for a few hours).
