    Doesn’t the fit note now normally have a specific date on it rather than just saying two weeks? 
    Not sure what you mean by do weekends count? Count in what respect?
    All shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of things shall be well.

    Pedant alert - it's could have, not could of.

    If your GP has been giving you two weekly notes since last October, presumably the same weekly start and end date that they’ve been up until now?

    If it starts tomorrow it will run to the 12th December BUT you need to check the wording of the 'Fit Note' as they used to say 'Until.....' which translates as will be fit for work on the 12th.

    enitrely dependant on the date the  Health Professional issuing the Fit  note  stating you are unfit for work  puts on it
