This is what fixed it. Thanks, Roger. Only my email was there, no 
phone. It said "Sign in with Apple ID", even though the Apple ID said I 
was signed in. I touched "Sign in". No dialog box. 2 messages pop up on 
my Mac saying my Apple ID is being used for iMessage and FaceTime. Why 
wasn't it doing that before? As noted above, it used to work and then 
it stopped. I never sign out.

After the 2 messages on the Mac, Send & Receive had my phone number and 
the Android contacts weren't showing red.

The other thing I forgot to mention earlier was that I could send to 
iPhones on my phone or Mac but what I sent on one didn't show up on the 
other.

Greatly relieved. Thanks again Roger (and other responders).
