Are the two linked? The latter because of limited mobility owing to your back problem?

I think only if it's to do with a long term issue/disability.

Certainly I know one chap in my office was sacked because he had three long-ish absences related to a single issue.

It would be dependant on certain circumstances if absences were to be linked.
Best example would be known to be entering hospital for corrective surgery that relates to a previous absence.
