And I see no place to insert this (my) image or this Internet URL to it:

I fear that I may have to take a wheelchair trip... (I had an operation for spinal stenosis 8/3/2022 to "snip, starting from the top, vertebrae 3, 4, 5, 6 & the top of 7 on the back of my neck where they fuse together, to relieve the pressure on my spinal cord" [pinched nerve(s).] Then a swollen testicle and a blood pressure reading of 209/109 resulted in a 911 trip to the hospital where they took a scan that showed my urethra closed off & needing my prostate to be reamed out. They then inserted a Foley catheter into my penis 9/2/2022, to remain until I heal from the operation I had 10/22/2022 that drained my swollen testicle.)... to my computer to insert my images, because my Samsung Galaxy A53 5G doesn't seem to let me upload my images directly, & instead wants me to go through their site:

Sorry for the probably wrongly done insertion into the middle of a sentence above. I like to tell true stories from my life, because I believe it helps my memory, mightbeinteresting to others, & in this case, maybe helps or enlightens somewhat others with nerve pain.

Anyway, if you can help me here, I will so appreciate it.
