Only half the size of the one I got in 2002, but still quite unsightly with a diameter of 8mm. (Height makes it almost spherical.) There’s a tightness around the skin, probably from growth pulling on it for building material. Again it’s the result of what I used to think were flea bites, but the fact they’re restricted to me now makes me wonder if it’s not an allergy of some kind instead.
Update: 2mm larger this evening, and a quick calculation had it consuming my entire body by May 23, 2010, so the dome had to be dismantled. The exposed circle on my ankle resembles what’s left on the trunk of a tree after a branch has been sawed off.
