Hi,

Thinking I was on the mend, I've developed Gout.  The good news is as soon as this flare up recedes I MUST EXERCISE! That is music to my ears. Also, I must watch my diet and many foods that I should not eat are the ones that cause flare ups. So, as badly as I felt having pain and learning the verdict - this will actually urge me to good modifications for life.  Talk to you next week. j
