Gout

Foot starting again but I've been drinking more water, eating watermelon and cucumber and today I had a smoothie and it is feeling better already so I guess I'm getting the things I need to do under control somewhat but my sugars are not right and I don't really know what else to be doing to fix them other than more exercise so I guess I gotta REALLY work hard on that part.

Pffffffff

...again with the feet!
I've been drinking water, water, water...and tea, tea, tea since yesterday.
Still hurt but since it was BOTH feet this morning and one seems better than the other now I guess I just have to KEEP drinking!!!!

I have gotten a whole bunch of writing and pages done the past two days though.
I guess there is some productivity to be had when you're laid up in bed resting with your feet up, waiting for the pain to get lost!! ;)

I'll be alright!

Hydrate, hydrate, hydrate!!

Ughhh...so much frustration in this business!
Been in the bed for 3 days with another bought of gout foot...let's face it my feet have not been the same since the full on attack I had back in Dec. but I am pretty sure the problem with me us dehydration for the most part. I need to DRINK more! I've been drinking water, herbal teas and eating grapes for 2 days now and a LOT and it definitely has improved the foot pain.
I have been checking my sugars as well and they are a little higher than usual so I'm concerned.
Next time...I'll be told I must take meal time insulin 4 times a day...this is NOT going to work for me and I'm VERY likely to end up hurting myself!
GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR
