I was reading the results of my workplace health screening and getting a little distressed at the red flagged "alert" item vis-a-vis "Uric Acid Level:" "This test is done to detect elevated uric acid levels . . . may form crystals . . . can damage kidneys . . . gouty attacks . . ."
Sounds ominous, doesn't it? I was imagining the lumps on my fingers (my god, that's what it is!) and digging for the old dr.'s number. Until I read it again and realized that I'm slightly under the normal range, rather than over. Putzes. I hate computerized benchmarking.
