My father (76) got gout a couple of TG's ago from too much red zin and snacking turkey skin when he took the leftovers down to the barn fridge each evening until it was gone. We wondered why it took him so long to come back every evening. He didn't like it much, but it did go away and hasn't re-occured.

My lil brother got a mitral valve "repair" at age 43. Doesnt require thinners like a pig valve does. Was also done through a 3" cracked chest rather than stem to stern. Four years and so far, so good.
