some up some down

The good news for today is that I didn’t have any pins and needles.  I stayed inside most of the day.  The book is done.  And I didn’t do any public speaking.  And I was chill, and chilled.

The bad news is that my body continues to fall apart.  I woke up with a swollen something-or-other in my right cheek.  It is right above the back of my jawbone.  It feels like it is 10mm in diameter, but its probably smaller.  I have a corresponding lesion on my right side of my tongue.   I think I have a lesion in my left nostril.

And most humiliatingly, I have a large mole on my ass that is raw all of a sudden.  It hurts really bad.  It seems almost like it is bleeding or something.  My Dermatologist has checked it several times and cleared it each time.  So I’m not worried that it is a Melanoma.  But it hurts, and I worry about my ability to heal.  And the worst part is that I can’t see it.  I tried taking pictures, but that didn’t really work.  Try aiming a point and shoot camera in macro mode at your ass really close up and try to get results…  it doesn’t work very well!
