Subject: RE: BS: robomatic in hospital
I haven't given any advice. Unlike you. Shades of all that keto nonsense a while back...

I don't regard all medics as infallible, and why would they be. But they're the guys on the spot. They've passed all their exams and they have all your history. They're the best guys to tell you what high or low residue foods to eat and whether you should be drinking lots of water. I've been ill for several weeks now with all sorts, including a bit of a kidney crisis. The last place I'd ever look for advice, or for the demurring of the medical advice I've received, is from unqualified people here on Mudcat. My doctors are wonderful, occasionally they're full of what could be bullshit, but they're the best I've got by a long chalk. Robo is a fierce and feisty sort of chap and he will know damn well who to listen to. All I'd say to him (whimsically, in case some rather literal-minded yanks or Aussies get me wrong), is to keep eating those bloody eggs if that's what they're telling you. There's nothing more cheery than a damn good plateful of eggs, done any way you like as long as the yolks are runny.

(Mind you, three or four stone-cold hard-boiled eggs on a cold day for a picnic... Nirvana...)
