Don’t worry, more political speaking green ^^ it’s also the color of our Unimog, which consumed around 20 metric liters of Diesel for 100 km which is quite Natur friendly:
The Diesel whe burn, can’t put in a SUV ^^

Don’t buy SUVs , buy an Unimog ^^
 
I just read an article that said that the main difference between fall allergies and COVID-19 is that fall allergies don't cause fever. I just punched in at 97.8, so I think I'm good.

In more upsetting news, staff told me that they heard it will probably be about three weeks before the dermatologist contacts them to set up an appointment for me, and who knows how long after that the appointment will be?
 
The bad news: A virus that kills one-third of the people it infects has been identified in Eastern North Carolina.
The good news: I'm in Western North Carolina. Take that, Eastern equine encephalitis!

Eastern Equine Encephalitis (EEE) Virus Identified in Eastern North Carolina Horses and Mosquitoes

Eastern equine encephalitis (EEE) virus has recently been identified in eastern North Carolina. Horses in three counties — Brunswick, Pender and Onslow — were recently diagnosed with EEE. In addition, EEE virus was detected in a mosquito sample from New Hanover County. No human cases of EEE have...

The follow-up bad news: I just remembered that I have a weeklong vacation in Eastern North Carolina in less than a week. Oh well, you gotta live on the edge sometimes.
Edit: I'm reminded too, I've been to the beach in Brunswick County twice. Good thing we're going to the Outer Banks this year.

I've been looking up more info on triple-E, as it's known. Apparently they made a vaccine for it for horses, but not for humans. I guess it's because humans just don't get it too often.

The weird thing is, the CDC has US statistics on human cases of triple-E from 2010 to 2019, and the cases go up dramatically in 2019 for some reason, from less than ten each year 2013 through 2018, to 38 in 2019. No info on 2020 or 2021 yet though.

Eastern Equine Encephalitis is a rare disease that is caused by a virus spread by infected mosquitoes.

Was there any shortage of equine vaccines because production capacity was moved to COVID-19 vaccines for humans or something ?
 
Surplus of dead horses.... extra salami, baloney and other unidentified meat...

I managed to take a new picture of the growth on my back all by myself. Tell me if it looks worse than two weeks ago.

Also i would rather go to the Skin Doctor when I would be unsure on things I have on the skin..
these distances diagnostic is not really save..
Lots of tiny diseases like cold are often diagnosed as cancer, whyle other things are just a fleshwound whyle you lost your arms and legs ..

On Topic: I don’t know my body temperature, but I had today some trouble whit my Shortwave Radio: I thought the frequency I put in for my Radio Bluetooth Transmitter where free, but as I drove over the German Autobahn (whit 90 km/h because I was annoyed from the Radio so I don’t wanted to drive the German Standart Speed of 350 km/h ^^ ) there where a lot more Radio Stations I thought so I had to re search on a Parking Ground until I found a free one ..
And there wasn’t even a Radio Orchid.. , so I have to play Furry in the Slaughterhouse from my IPhone Music..
and I have to bring my car again to the Work Shop, there is something wrong whit the „Landing Gear“ (in Germany this was called „Fahrwerk“ ) „Domlager „ which is a known disease from this Van ..
and it’s needs a new Exhaust as it’s outer hull is now about to rust off.. (also a known disease)
In Germany, they say FIAT stands for „Fehler in Allen Teilen“ (Issues in all Parts) but it’s not easy transportable to English.. ^^
 
Something I just noticed that's freaking me out a little: There appears to be a small dark spot the size of a pore off to the west of my giant double mole. This dark spot has what looks like pigment under the skin to its south though, kinda like bruising. I'm thinking it could be a small nodular melanoma. You can see it in both today's picture and the one from two weeks ago, although it's clearer in today's pic, but fortunately not larger.
 
JDTAY: can you please stop bringing up medical issues here as it seems like you have a new problem every second day. It's quite overwhelming for a forum which has nothing to do with how your body functions :)

I would suggest instead of posting here, write a note in your diary and present it your GP for advice as they're the ones who are able to make a decision. Not us.
 
Peony dream time. Last night she had a dream where she was walking through fields full of flowers, which would have been most agreeable for her if the dream hadn't been in monochrome.

My nose started running like a faucet about ten minutes ago. I’m vaxxed though, so I can only assume it’s a deadly nose cancer and not COVID-19.
 
Not a symptom this time, just noting that I finally got in to see a dermatologist near the end of this month. Then I can do a general check of all the skin things I have.
