This week I manage to swing an ax & sledge hammer to cut, split, and stack 1/2 cord of oak. Each day my lower right leg from below my knee to my ankle turns purple? Then after 6 hours only 20% is like a rash? No itch but very strange. Each day I am covered in saw dust and sweat and I begin at 6 AM and quit before 9 AM to avoid heat and the sun. My wife forbids me from any other activities for the day which is good for me.
My SCT was in 2021. August is my 4 year anniversary. I did have more cells delivered September 2021 as the first batch wasn't taking well.
