COLUMN ........................................... John Helmer Gripe and Groan Illustration by Chris Riddell “Is this a good moment to talk?” “Given that I'm waiting at baggage reclaim and my suitcase hasn’t yet shown up, as good a moment as any.” “It’s about your test results...” This is never a good opening to a telephone conversation with a healthcare professional. “Should I be sitting down?” “Actually, you should be sitting down less. Ideally you need to be doing as much exercise as possible… But come in to see me when you get back home and I’ll run you through it...” It seems I’m pre-diabetic. I have high blood sugar levels – as well as high blood pressure and high cholesterol. All three cherries. I’m allowed to eat cherries, by the way, since although fruit contains a lot of sugar, it also comes with fibre, which is good. But cherryflavoured yoghurt is out, as are any number of cherry-oriented puddings or the sort of cakes that typically come with a cherry on the top. No more Mr Kipling’s Cherry Bakewells for me then, (other brands of life-shortening snack are available). And, of course, I should drink less. Has anybody over fifty ever been to a doctor about any complaint at all and not been advised to drink less? If such a person exists, I don’t want to go to their dinner parties. I’m entered in a programme which is going to encourage me to make lifestyle changes. Since I already exercise a fair bit and am not overweight, the main thrust of this is to steer me away from roast potatoes, little pastries at 11am and all the sweet things of life, and towards wholegrains, porridge groats, dark, heavy German bread and brown rice. It seems like cruel but, perhaps, fitting revenge for all those jokes we used to make in the Eighties about the customers of health shops: “Have you seen those people in Infinity? None of them looks remotely well…” I lose a stone and start running more regularly and soon feel bursting with health. Eating smoked salmon on pumpernickel bread for lunch actually doesn’t seem too grave a punishment for a life of chips and carb overload. And something I learn when I start to tell people about my condition is that just about everybody in my friendship group and extended family is in the same boat. It’s just that they maintain a stoic silence while I like to whinge. “We’re those old gits in the corner we always hated,” I say to a friend, “discussing their ailments”. From rock and roll to gripe and groan. But these are First World problems. Meanwhile British politics are in meltdown and the Amazon is on fire, and my wife informs me that our next jaunt to the continent will be by train, not plane (no more baggage reclaim, at least). It seems a lot of us are going to be making lifestyle changes soon. ....35....
