Doctor thinks I may be experiencing my 1st gout episode. We're waiting for the blood test to see if it's gout or Lyme's disease. Between the two, I think the gout is the winner winner chicken dinner. Two weeks ago I ran 50 feet, in my bare feet, to answer the phone one morning. I should mention I wear orthotics to deal with the arthritis in my feet. About an hour later I'm standing with the HVAC guy and I notice my left foot is hurting a bit. He leaves and the foot now resembles a meatloaf with 5 stuffed sausages attached. I thought I may have sprained or strained it so I called rheumatoid guy, he instructs: ice, xray. That yields no fracture, prescribes anti inflammatory. 4 days later, still lousy. Now they give me more prednisone, during my "summer of steroids", takes swelling away. Then I go see my PCP, he finally draws blood for testing uric acid and Lyme's disease prescribes colchicine to remove uric acid. Ladies and gentlemen, I respectfully submit this stuff has stopped me cold in my tracks. I really eat pretty healthy, drink water, etc.. I've temporarily cut my 2 beers a day to zero. I truly have no idea what events brought this on. Still not back in the saddle. I need to be back in that saddle real soon! Dave

Unless you are from another planet, physically or otherwise, I don’t think our internal combustion buddies will talk and tell us their problems. But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
