Hi Glenn,
I'm going to have to try out some of your ideas... I'm sometimes getting some joint pain in my knuckles... Early sign of arthritis?
(I didn't knock anyone out boxing recently... so it's probably not that!)
My sister-in-law had undiagnosed allergies, and cut out a lot of foods (under the guidance of some expert, I forgot what kind of expert)... Then she gradually reintroduced the foods, to see which ones negatively affected her.
At the end of the process, she had a better idea of what she was allergic to!
Probably something I should try!
Glenn... thanks, you are a fount of knowledge! 
Best wishes,
Dien

ME? 
 
I Avoid Pain. 
 
When I got Arthritis in my Joints SO BAD - the Pain Woke me up Screaming.   
My Brother, The Surgeon, Offered to Replace the Painful Joints. 
 
I said, "No Thanks, Brother." 
 
And Read Some Books about Food Allergies. 
 
WOWSERS.

Poison - Family. 
 
Darn if we all are not eating POISON. 
 
Just shows you how TOUGH the Human Body is. 
 
Red Tomatoes 
White Potatoes 
Egg Plant. 
 
I quit eating those 3 for 2 Weeks And MOST of my Pain Went Away. 
 
LIKE MAGIC. 
 
Not all PAIN.  But Most. 
 
So I kept Testing. 
 
Kept a Chart of what I ate. 
 
Green Fruit Gives me PAIN.  And since Most "Fresh" fruit in the stores in picked 
GREEN and shipped.  (Had to Quit eating Most Fruit.) 
 
Bananas and Oranges seem ok. 
 
Then I Discovered I was Allergic to Durham Wheat. 
 
Now I Buy SPELT FLOUR - Tastes Exactly like Regular Flour. 
 
So I Got a Bread Machine - Make my own Bread. 
 
The Result? 
 
When a 20 Year Old Neighbor Came to my door and Said, "A Goat fell into my Basement.  Can You Help me Get him Out? 
 
I said, "SURE." 
 
Got my shoes on. 
 
His Silly Girlfriend Insisted on going down the stairs with a Bucket of water.  The Bill-Goat SAW a Path To Freedom. 
 
The Goat KNOCKED her down. 
 
Ran up the Stairs Btwn Adam and me. 
 
And I found Myself Chasing a Goat up the Road - Running beside two Twenty Year Olds. 
 
Just So You Know the END of the Story. 
 
THE GOAT GOT AWAY.

3 Reasons -  
 
I - You Have My Permission To BE Different from THE ROCK.  And Avoid Pain. 
 
II - You Might Learn About some New Body Parts that Can Be Stapled Back together.  I know I Did.  His body Looks GREAT But He is a Wreck.

Thanks,
