105. Sick and tired of being sick and tired (or, to be honest, bored and frustrated)

So. I’m sitting here inventing things to do. Housework isn’t done but that isn’t REAL work, its faffing about. I’m bored. Being bored is making me miserable. Being miserable is making me worry about aches and pains (a pain in my breast is more cancer, natch). Suddenly, a light bulb goes on. There is NO guarantee that radiotherapy is going to start immediately after my initial setup appointment (given the delay last time) and that will be me using yet more sick leave when I’m not sick. Therefore, if I’m fit to work, why not work? Only one hurdle. I need to see my GP. Within minutes, I’ve booked an appointment with the GP AND phoned the school to let them know I may be back at work soon.
