Wake Me Up When September Ends

I've decided to use songs as post titles and this one sums me up at the moment. 

I'm a bit over this cancer thing and just want to get on with my life but bloody cancer keeps interfering. 

It would seem my little solo dance party celebrating the end of chemo has created an issue with my knee, plus I have a few spots/rash on my leg.

So I've been to my GP... oh how he laughed when I told him how I injured myself. The rash could be either 
A. A drug reaction
B. Dermatitis from god knows what
C. A fungus????

He sent me to Pathlab to get skin scrapings of the rash and I've to go to physio for treatment on the knee. 

5 days later and the rash appears to be going and I had my first physio appointment. I've probably aggravated a previous knee ligament tear, he gave me some acupuncture, and I'm to have a few treatments. As I was going he told me that I could walk but no "twist and shout dancing" Yep, he also laughed when I told him the cause. I do like to leave the medical professionals laughing

I am back at work part-time this week, thought I'd be ok but am finding half days are more than enough and that's getting me down. I know that I have a lot to be thankful for, and I need to be patient because I still have another week and a half of my "it will take 3 weeks to recover from radiation" but I am sick of random tiredness.

On the bright side I had an entertaining visit from my friend Kaye at the weekend, it was good to get out, even if it was just to the movies, but what a great one it was - go and see Poi E: The story of our song

Eating KFC and drinking G&Ts also helped, and laughing about me trying to get a 

urine sample from my cat. Mission accomplished and Molly's way better
