Skin neoplasm excision, Skin cancer and Urinary tract infection

I should add that my reaction to the vaccine yesterday when I was so sick might have been due to technical fact that I had Covid 6 months ago, and I have been classified a long hauler. I had some nausea medication left over from my Covid, which I took yesterday, and that helped a lot.

Ive had pain in my neck on the left side for the past week. At first I thought it was from sleeping wrong, but it persisted even with Tylenol, Ibuprofen, heat wraps, cold packs, and muscle rubs. It has finally started to diminish to a stiffness.

I'm experiencing the neck pain again.

This probably has nothing to do with the vaccine or Covid, but I have had a UTI for the month of April that antibiotics cant seem to get rid of. Im on my third round of antibiotic, so Ill see if that works.

Its the same UTI that I am on a 4th round of antibiotics for. It just wont seem to clear up. It started on April 8.

I've had two areas of skin cancer. I had one already removed, and I have surgery on the other on Tuesday, April 5. Dermatology

The pain in my arm is more under my arm that got the injection. I assume it's a swollen lymph node. Also, the symptoms I'm having each time I get a vaccine are the exact symptoms I experienced when I had Covid in August of 2020.

General physical condition, Feeling of relaxation and Mammogram

I was hungry and felt physical.

I've been hungry, always having food in my mouth.

I feel full of energy and want to be doing things. Getting ready for Lent helps me calm down.

The weather may contribute to my feelings, so I don't know. I was feeling irritated before vaccine #1. I have a mammogram tomorrow and it makes me irritable.

I had my mammogram today. I had an extra round of coffee at Clary's. I came in, put food out, and bathed. Everything was very sloppy and messy. But, I dod Lent Day#1 and colored and read. I am passive, like an animal prepared to lunge. I am still irritated by climate change..

I am irritable. I go to the doctor tomorrow. God's wrecking ball is rude. I am willing to concede that this viral pandemic is not His fault. At least He could move in the gentle breeze of Jesus. Jesus also knocks before entering. Who is this guy. This is not putting me in a good mood.

Better day, but still feeling fair. My doctor appointment changed from this friday to next friday. I walked there and back without a rest period. I feel relaxed and calmed. I was active but what I have to do is amplifying.

The hustle bustle of spring irritayes me.

I had a bowel movement at 2:00 am and then one at 9:00 am and then one at 4:00 pm. It was not lose. It was long and slimey and full grit of some kind. The whole of the inside of my legs itch. I will bathe soon and til then I am doing thing to not scatch it raw.

I itch all over my feet. I trimmed my toe nails. My toes itch. My ankles feel like something is crawling around inside. My knees itch. I am cold to the tiuch so I turmed off the thermal uniy. Syanding in the sun does not warm my skin. It is okay. If things get severe I am told to call the WellCare Value 24-hour nurses help line.

My skin is scaling and I feel warming. My brain is flexing.

My body warming helped me to relax. This makes me feel more okay. The uncertain future makes me nervous.

My shoulders and the back of my neck chilled. My nose, face, and ears itched.

I feel warm but my skin feels chills from a cold and icy breeze. This makes my joints ache.
