Speaking for myself (as a standard US employee with a "progressive" HR, I mean Human Asset Management dept), I get 0 sick days. I get three weeks (15 days) which is supposed to be for both vacation and sickness. Someone who can't work two days a month would either be fired or be taking leave without pay, and never able to take paid vacation.

I feel very sorry for you and others in your position to hear that.
the UK has some very forgiving policies on sick leave (https://www.gov.uk/taking-sick-leave). in fact you don't even have to provide a doctors note if you take just a couple of days off.
