Feel Knackered Today

top marks to the dr there. It is and it is! Not too much red wine though as I hate the stuff. It's actually a kidney issue. The kidneys are not filtering out the usic acid properly which forms sharp crystals in the joints. So you have to adjust your diet to lower the uric acid production. Unfortunately beer should not form part of this diet - which is why I get this

Indeed it is old boy – I feel your pain. I struggled to get down the stairs for a while when I had it last year. Doc couldn’t find any explanation apart from excessive amounts of red wine and red meat. Stick to Pinot Grigio and chicken now.



Hope it clears up.

Sounds like Gout. Very painful indeed, too much red wine.

I've been suffering with a painful knee and ankle.

I was thinking of going out for a few beers with a mate in London, but I've been suffering with a painful knee and ankle. So I wimped out. On the way home I passed the dome and Guns and Roses were on later (much later) I bought a ticket on my phone, picked it up at the box office, went in and bought a shirt then went home for tea. Later on I went back to the dome and watched the end of the thin lizzy set (who were really good) and then waited for GnR. They came on at 10:45 and finished at 1:40. Then Billy No Mates hobbled off home. Getting up this morning was a chore though! It probably wasn't the best idea having a beer before bed either!

Cracking show though
