Grounded

I think I turned a corner.

Very glad to hear that, Michael! -Skip

Actually, I'm having quite a bit of difficulty tolerating the NSAIDs, though it is helping with my ever present weight loss regimen. I will be calling my doc tomorrow; I should have a better choice than debilitating pain or being actively nauseous. Oh, and thanks for the free medical advice. I suspect it's worth way more than I paid for it.

And Mrs. S. can confirm that I avoid MDs and pills like the plague. However, I am less than sanguine about debilitating pain, and that's what it takes to get me to swallow a pill. The only thing a man can experience worse than gout is kidney stones, and the FAA will ground you for even a wiff of that.

By the way things are looking up. I actually put on socks today.

Did you try the cherries? My Dad and brother swear by them.

Haven't yet, but if this persists I will. Not a huge fan, but I'll go buy them if the NSAIDs fail me. However, being able to walk in hiking boots without keeling over from the pain is a huge improvement. And not having an appetite for days seems to be improving my waistline.
