Captains Log-health diary

 Pain still in left shoulder, but now right big toe swells up and joins in.  At least this is an old pain. It sucks, but I know what is coming. Probably the whole foot will blow up, and I need to go get a cheap size 12 4E shoe and cut out the toes and wear it with no shoestrings.  I normally wear a size 8. 

Can't use the walker with the shoulder and elbow and wrist iffy...crutch sucks.  May be time for a walking stick. My wife has suggested a motorized scooter. (Not happening, yet.) 

Psoriasis has been unusually subdued, but the layers of skin on my feet that are growing in and falling off is amazing.  I suppose that is psoriasis also. 

Do diets cause flair ups in various arthritic conditions? No need to answer. I will research it myself.  

I have been asked why I don't go to the doctor for all of this?  Because in a stretch like this, I would be there three times a week. Surely, it is the same thing, just moving around. My wife suggests making a list for the doc.

Looking forward to a return to creative writing...perhaps something not as humorous as real life.
