    Doing anything physical with any limb on the mend from any kind of injury, can be a real toil. Hopefully it will go down in swelling as you continue, or you may need to lay up a few days in order to rest it. Feel better buddy, looking forward to next week to see your experience with the wolves or coyotes.

    What is that on the side of the bank right at 16 minutes?!! Looks like a blue cooler which I wasn't expecting in the middle of nowhere. I've been following since you were around 14k subscribers and every week I'm so hopeful you've made it to the 100k subscriber milestone - so close! Another thing I noticed, just starting at this video I think, is that there were a few ads! Maybe 4 or 5 of them, they were all super short. I was sure to let them play all the way through, hoping that helps you in some monetized way. Thanks for sharing your journey. I look forward to the new episodes every week!

    • @WhatInTheWorld_Tom

    Hi Tom! I hope all is well, for you! My mom used to suffer with gout. It's definitely not a fun situation, from what I've been told. There wasn't much that could be done to have any form of comfort. My moms started in her feet & worked its way a little up her leg.
    Thank you, yet again, for sharing your journey, with us.

      Gout is horrible! When I do get it, it's normally in my big toe, and it is excruciating!! In the past, I've been lying on the floor in tears with the pain! I don't recommend it. But this is the first time I've experienced it in my knee, which also indicated to me that it may not be gout (hint hint) and could be something more serious

    Gout ouch. Yea I get Gout on my right and left toes not fun. You had a enjoyable canoe ride this video it seems. I never really thought about the rising water of a river due to the dams, but it's something new to me that I learnt through watching your video's. It did look as though the swelling of your knee went down throughout the day and the movement got easier. Hoe the mosquito's weren't a nuisance over night for you as you did pitch your tent in the long grass. Okay Tom catch you on your next video. cheers, but as you are a New Zealander I'll say "CHUR"!

      Yes 🙂 wrap and elevate. I'm not sure why I didn't think to wrap it. I do have a medical kit with me.. but elevating it wasn't an option. The Pas is 2.5 days away, so my goal is to get there as fast as possible and see a doctor

  • @jabjab1010

    Aww Tommo, there is nothing worse than a dicky knee. You need a serious massage, & perhaps some physiotherapy, after the battering your body is going through.

    Can’t wait for next week.
    Be well. 👍🏽

      For sure.. though, I usually only get "emotional gout".. when I'm going through a stressfull difficult time in my life e.g when my dad suddenly passed away.
      I've never had it from having a poor diet.. that's why I'm questioning whether it's gout. Gout was my first assumption 😊
