For Those of You that Might have actually missed Me,

[Gman]

Spinach is the worst for me...really high uric acid levels from that devil weed.

I quit taking allopurinol for maintenance because it was making me very tired, muscle injuries took really long to heal, and I seemed to have attacks more often that were very severe in nature. It was almost like it was masking the effects until it was a full-blown attack. Now I seem to notice an onset sooner.

Naproxen sodium (Aleve/Naprosyn) works very well for me with the inflammation. In really severe cases I'll ice the areas down. Fortunately, I can tell in my right foot when things are heading down that ugly road and I jump on the colchicine and Aleve right away and head things off. I have had those moments before I knew I had gout when the ankle was a little sore when I went to bed and couldn't walk when I woke up. Bummer!

...but I guess it's better than having diabetes.

I'm praying for you.

...and Marlin.

Man, I'm glad Mine wasn't that bad.

You get better also Scott.
