Thanks for this Janet. Much appreciated.
I have my blood work back and my uric acid levels are "borderline elevated" - 9.2
I was not tested for insulin levels. So I have no idea what they are.
The information on the net about avoiding high purine foods always includes red meat, shrimp, certain fishes/shell fish and organ meats. All my low carb staples.
Immunoglobulin A is 78 - range is 87-352. Whatever that means.
So, I either have gout or a precursor to gout. ?
I have stopped eating bacon - a daily staple - and have noticed immediate changes in the bruising on my legs - going away!
Who knew?
Thanks again, Janet - I will watch again and again
