Skin has not gotten better. Going to stay off all nuts.

Woken by major itching on shoulder sites; might have been the heat. Better after applying urea. Couldn’t get back to sleep probably because of hunger. So breakfast at 5am.
Breakfast: tapioca & coconut pudding, wheat bread w/ peanut butter, butter, pineapple jam; oats w/ milk, coffee, goji, walnuts, egg tart
Went for a cardio and strength workout. Skin inflammed and itchy from sweat. Site under left arm is weeping; might be from the chaffing during cardio. Doesn’t appear on the right side though. Also, the fluid isn’t smelly.
Lunch: tapioca & coconut pudding, banana, apple
Had a cold shower and applied general urea.
Dinner: white rice, fish, bitter gourd & tofu curry, green vege
Took a dump. Stool was huge and hard. Normal colour except for streaks of blood.

One of the better nights. Back doesn’t seem to be weeping and only moderate itch.
Benefits possibly from:
- goji berries
- fats (good and bad)
- sufficient calories
Breakfast: tapioca and coconut pudding; yogurt w/ berries, goji, walnuts, coffee; peanuts, walnuts, almonds, wheat biscuit w/ pineapple jam, butter, peanut butter; oat biscuit, apple
Lunch: anchovy & soy bean soup w/ green vege; cranberries
Should have overloaded my calories for the day.
Slept most of the afternoon away. Might have been the tea I drank.
Dinner: white rice, chicken, fish, green vege (broccoli, carrots, mushrooms)

Inflammation is back. Site on left arm and back is weeping. So, may not be an allergy to brown rice but rather effect of the steroid creams applied.
Breakfast: tapioca & coconut cake, wheat bread w/ pineapple jam, coconut jam (kaya); peanut pancake (bhan chan kueh), grapes, mung bean porridge, figs, almonds
Took a dump. Stools are green and firm.
Lunch: none
Went for a cardio and strength workout. Sites on shoulder and back are irritated by sweat. Had a cold shower and applied general urea. Shirt smells from the weeping fluid.
Dinner: fish, baked salmon w/ olive oil, mustard; goji berries, papaya, mung bean & sweet potato porridge, wheat crackers w/ pineapple jam
