  Hello all, 

  Well I thought I'd just give you a brief update on my absence from the site. The past six weeks have been a knightmare for me, my troublesome knee has been playing me up somewhat. Although I have kept my work commitments up, everything else has taken a step back, even my ongoing work in my daughters garden along with all things Trans! 

  Having been diagnoised with chronic gout in my knee, which I never knew you could get here, but my Doctor tells me you can get gout in any joint, this is caused by crystallization of the fluid and the uric acid levels within your blood. Certain foods can increase the uric acid levels, fresh tomato, mushrooms, any dark green vegetables, so eating healthtly like I do is not always the best practice, along with red wine, real beer ect... can contribute to the ailment.

  Six weeks of sleep deprivation has not been the best also, but now having new medication, along with extra suppliments and also I've recently read that cherry juice fights uric acid in a good way, I seem to be on my way to being mobile again and a more approchable pearson once again.

  So here I am again, 

  Best wishes to you all
