calzephyrI really need to get a genealogy icon :-D
Many people get into genealogy because knowing what your ancestors struggled with health-wise is always a bonus. For Mom's paternal side of the family, few of them lived long enough for them to experience aging! My grandfather died when he was 42.
Well, I made the connection earlier this year that gout can be hereditary. My uncle, his two sons and my brother all suffer from gout. After menopause, my gout risk will increase, so gotta make those lifestyle changes sooner than later, I suppose!
