Update

Just back from a festival in our capital.  Saw various shows from opera to circus.  Latter performers could bend and bounce in what I can only describe as unearthly ways - so apt to call their show "Beyond'. They are from Brisbane. The opera was a modern one (Ainadamar) with overseas principals but my daughter was in the small female chorus so good incentive to go. One of best acts overall was a whacky, insane and unusual Russian troupe who performed something they had taken to London for the Shakespeare festival called a Midsummer Nights Dream but actually about the play within a play of that called Pyramas and Thisbe.  Lots of comedy and even at their entrance, trooping down the side with scenery and hammed up calamaties I was entranced - especially as the rich wits in the posh seats at the front got sprayed with water!
I continue to battle with a problem hand and indifferent medical response here. It is definitely carpel tunnel caused by continuing RA attack in bits and pieces of my hand.  Have had to drop some of the medication as liver enzymes up a bit.  The dropping goes quite well with all the stuff I am dropping in the literal sense...
My three weeks of enforced vegan eating has produced an amazing graph of cholesterol fall.  But there is still the thought that total tryglycerides up and a gym check the other day found total body fat increased
So introspective naval gazing about What To Do.  Dr suggests continuing with half and half vegan and ordinary diet.
And as for the hand....think I will just Make a Nuisance of myself by ringing the rheumy nurse on a regular basis....
