Get off my LAWN! "Grumpy Old Farts"

Yikes, which med? My uncle suffered from gout and seriously I don't want it. I've had two heart attacks and a double bypass and am on a raft of meds... I'd seriously like to know which one (or class) did it... PM me if you prefer privacy. :D
It was Zaroxolyn (Metolazone). Never had gout before or since. Don't know if it was because of dosage, or the whole raft of other stuff I take, or a combination thereof. Fortunately, I had the kind of gout that is only extremely painful sitting around, and just short of excruciating to walk on. There are reports that some folks nearly go into orbit just by having someone cause vibrations by walking across the room while they're sitting there. Metolazone: Side Effects, Dosages, Treatment, Interactions, Warnings
 
and a well-meaning person from social services visits regularly, but nothing changes.

There are Americans who reach adulthood without ever realizing there are stupid English people :rolleyes:

You wouldn't flip the pieces, maybe refinish.
Not even refinish. The Stickley pieces have good, original finish on them (they don't make 'em like they used to, Mom). The JM Young settee does have some wear in places, but I'm comfortable with that, really. Do need to treat the stuff like they are museum pieces.
 
I tolerate Brussel Sprouts, but I love Liver and onions. Unfortunately, (in the true spirit of GOF) it causes my Gout to flare up!!:bawl:
Uloric.....Brilliant....Insurers don't like lobbing out for it though because it's expensive....

My mad Russian doc gave them hell and they finally caved....

Wonderful stuff....:hyper:
 
Today marks my first hot cross bun sighting of 2021. If the cross cut in the bottom of Brussels sprouts isn't enough to ... hey isn't that like just letting the demons out? I truly hope that :vomit: "frosting" on hot cross buns is enough to keep the demons inside. Whatever it is, it ain't frosting :poop:
 
Those of you stating your preference for brussel sprouts, I'm not liking any of your posts.

Bunch o' ....'s
Brussels sprouts were the one and only vegetable the Winslow kids were exempt from eating when we were little. Pa Winslow loved the things, but Ma Winslow hated them. She would make them from time to time only to appease him, but always told us we didn't have to eat a single one if we didn't want to. We never did. :D
