My advice is find out what the sick policy is, like how many day or hours of sick time you have. Then you will know how much time you can take off without risking your job. If you can get to a doctor, he may say you need more time off than whatever you already have.
There may be some paper work involved if taking extended leave.
If one is planning only a day or two to call in sick, I would say call and just say, "This is so and so, and I will not be making it in today". The reason doesn't really matter. If they ask, say, "Well something came up..."
For the guilt thing - As already said, that is not your problem if they are understaffed.
Bosses are often trying to find out who they can or cannot walk on. I think the ones at my place of work see me and are like, "Oh damn, just Brenda, she ain't about to out up with it."
