Duck or pork with rice or noodles at night market on 6-22-23--Ubon Ratchathani copy




From 6/22/23, so my second day in town ten days ago. I ate at this stand at the night market twice before my skin disaster, and once after it, my sole unhealthy meal away from Grow Up.

Yesterday and today, I managed to take some photos on the streets, so I'm inching my way back to normalcy. I thought I would start a new article today, but it was often so excruciating to do anything, such as going from my bed to the bathroom, I'll write tomorrow.

This skin affliction you speak of...have you had a diagnosis? Could it be "Shingles".?

Wishing you quick recovery in being rid of this what sounds like an awful affliction.

Hi Eric,

It's definitely not shingles. It's having so many toxins accumulated through the decades, from being around oil paint and turpentine, as artist and housepainter, and drinking too much alcohol when I was younger, to eating processed meats, donuts, potato chips, Cheetos and too many french fries, etc. What prompted my current disaster was a new ointment coupled with an abrasive liquid soap. With my skin wrecked, all that poison oozed out!
