Gout! More water please!

Today, Sunday, was a bit critical for me health-wise, as I discovered I was victim of gout. M mentioned the cause may be tomatoes and I realised immediately it was that as I had eaten a whole bag in less than a week. My brother who also suffered once from gout, was very sympathetic and counselled medications, but I feel that increased water and reduced acid will make all the difference. Already I feel better but it did make me aware that my long road trip to Brisbane, alone, might he ill-advised, especailly in the height of summer, so I went on the net amd found a cheap return flight with Jetstar from Newcastle. Gone are my visits with MaryLou and Jan, but I wll do them another time when I am not in a rush and it's not summer!
