Mistaken Identity?

Hey Man!
You know how it is when you go to the doctors, after 30 minutes in the waiting room, you pay some charges, then you go to one of those little rooms to wait again. But at this point you realize that you are alot closer. It may only be a few minutes more but it's seeming like into the hours now. First of all there are no magazines to keep you busy. So then there are all those drawers that you are being tempted to look through. As you're going through these drawers you have now spotted the bandades and still no sounds of the doctor coming. As you are thinking about whether you really will need one before you get home in comes the doctor.
So immediately you are showing him your swollen ankle/foot and before you could say anything he says "Is there any gout in your family?" With a guilty look you tell him that your Mom has the gout with every other week having a real break out. You feel so guilty since the gout supposedly comes from eating rich foods. It was the disease of Kings! So the doctor says "that's it." With that voice of knowlege and you know he's smart when it took him just 2 seconds to diagnose your swollen foot. Now that we know why my ankle/foot is so swollen it's a sure thing the cure is right around the corner, or is it?
