This is more a query for future reference. I am on jsa in a universal credit area. I am currently recovering from pneumonia. I became ill on 9th november. I havent bothered to tell the jobcentre because as far as i know i would only have been allowed a maximum of 2 weeks sickness.
So my question is what could i have done in my situation. What was the best thing to do. Or was just ploughing through and continuing to jobseek as i have done the only viable option.

A quick google search gave me this, which should answer your question. https://search3.openobjects.com/mediamanager/reading/enterprise/files/130415_esp_claimant_leaflet.pdf
