If you are not fit to fly for other reasons, then you should not fly but don't expect to be paid out of sick leave $.
Why is the NC claiming best sick leave in the biz with 240+ hours a year if you can't use them? What is the C2012 or TA definition of sick? I can't find it? If it doesn't define it, then each pilots decision about whether they are too sick to fly is subjective, yours included. There is probably an AC put out by the FAA for guidance. I'll try to find it.
