    Not in my toe or my feet but in the knuckles of my right hand. And I don't drink alcohol. Took about two weeks to heal.

    If it's anything like mine, preserved under grappa. After a few cherries you're bullock proof :confused:

    No idea. Hubby had gout occasionally. Doc told him to try cherries when it strikes. They work

    Okay ... Hip Bursitis treated with cortisone and going great - Sciatic treated with physio and exercise and going great - just booked into get the leg circulation checked as legs still numb, tingling and cramping

    This getting old sucks - but sure beats the alternative and glad the issues all happened in this "no travel" year

    Note" Bowel test done - must book in for the boobs!

    I wish mine would:). Would be much cheaper especially given my taste for expensive drinks:cool:.

    The main causes for poor circulation are:

    Obesity - nope
    Diabetes - nope
    High Cholesterol - nope

    Which leaves narrowing of the arteries (yuck) and doesn't leave many options to fix other than aspirin and/or stent ... so started myself on 1/4 aspirin to see if it makes a difference over the next few days.

    I discovered the fountain of youth - if grey hair is a sign of getting older, I'll shave my head & I'll stay young. :D
