Of course, I have developed gout...

Way to let us know you are a rich guy like Rauner and Pritzker.

Haha, definitely not rich, but I would rather be broke and desperate than deal with gout flare ups. I’ve sprained ankles and knees, and broken bones, and gout is way more painful than any of that other shit.

That sucks dude. One of my old neighbors is an avid home brewer. Had to quit drinking because of fatty liver. Life can be a real drag.

I started getting it a couple years ago. Last year had it in my ankle and this is no joke, I could just barely walk. Couldn't articulate my ankle at all without excruciating pain. Normally it's in the big toe, which sucks but you can deal with that until bed time. My doctor said the same shit about red meats, alcohol, etc but I don't think they really know what triggers it. I do have high uric acid levels. Anyway, with my ankle flare up I hobbled into a podiatrist and she shot me up (on the inside of the ankle) and let me tell you, that is some painful shit. I think I cried. And sharted.

Reducing severity and frequency of attacks is a big part of the equation, and diet etc can play a role in that.
Good luck.

Famous People in History with Gout

These are not the only famous people who have had gout, when we look at both today and throughout history the list grows, and grows.

    Ludwig Van Beethoven, musician
    Charles Dickens, English author and social critic
    Benjamin Franklin, USA Founding Father
    John Hancock, American Revolution leader
    William Pitt, Former Prime Minister of Great Britain
    Sir Isaac Newton, English mathematician and physicist
    Nostradamus, French apothecary
    Leonardo da Vinci, Italian painter, sculptor, architect and engineer
    Samuel Johnson (1709 to 1784) British author and poet, suffered from what he and his doctors labelled as gout, beginning in 1775, when he was 65.
    Queen Victoria. The British Monarch had nine children and lived a very full life before her passing at 82 years of age. Her last few years she suffered from a few medical issues, one of them being gout.
    Alexander the Great, conqueror
    John Calvin, religious leader
    Charlemagne , Holy Roman Emperor
    Pope Clement XII
    Christopher Columbus, explorer
    Karl Marx, economist/philosopher
    Michelangelo, sculptor


Diet can play a role but mostly it's already baked in the cake.  There are meds to reduce uric acid levels.  Good luck guys!

Cortisone. Think she was trying to get the swelling down while the meds took effect. It was pretty shitty. Haven't really had a bad flare up for nearly a year and I really didn't change my habits much at all. I like to drink beer. But, I did drop a bunch of weight this year, and I'm sure that can't hurt.

I take meloxicam for flare-ups. It takes awhile to kick in. If it continues, I'll get on something to lower uric acid levels. I just don't like being on any kind of meds long term.

Back to the chuck-eye talk. Very rarely find it locally. Have to be at the store at the right time. It's funny, because it's always kind thrown back in with the other steaks as if somebody picked it up, didn't know what it was, and just threw it back in the meat case. Fools!

I just got a cortisone shot last week for my right knee. Been battling some meniscus issues and bursitis stemming back to some stupid exercise I was doing in the gym. I have had that knee scoped before for torn meniscus and was expecting the same after this incident. Instead the doctor whipped out this scary long needle and unceremoniously plunged it deep into the center of the joint. Feels great now but fuck that shot was no fun! Can imagine the ankle is way worse yet.

I’ve always had it in my right big toe. It’s been a thing for years, but the flare-ups are more frequent now. My uric acid test came back high, so I’m going on allopurinol. I’m also on prednisone for 10 days and gulping up ibuprofen.

The ankle would suck. The toe is awful too. Every fucking step is awful.

For some reason, they trimmed the fat cap off these, but I bought some anyway. Seasoned and sliced one into steaks. Tasty and tender grilled, but were a tiny bit on the dry and chewy side. Might try slow roasting a whole one.
