Sorry for the delay. Came down with another month of gout, and unfortunately my prescription medicine didn’t seem to have that much of an affect on it this time. Although with all the time that has passed, the pain isn’t as bad as it was during the first week, it’s still pretty noticeable whenever I start walking. Planning to find a new family doctor and get this problem taken care of soon.
Again I do apologize.
Here’s chapter 138, I’ll have another one out tomorrow.
Have you been told to keep a food diary so that you know what food triggers your gout? Just because it’s not always pork and such foods, I had a patient whose gout was triggered by a bread she ate, along with a nutritionist and a more active lifestyle she hasn’t had a flare up in over a year now, just something to consider and talk about when you change providers. Obviously I don’t know your med history but for gout I find this very effective in management of flare ups.
