I know that doesn't really answer your question of what to do if they do ask for a note but I don't know that answer to that one. I would say call in sick and if you get a call from the CP just explain the situation.
In all my dealings with the company and the CP's, they have been fair and reasonable. Be honest about whats going on and I cannot imagine them giving you grief.
