Gout Attack II – Electric Boogaloo

What really sucks about gout attacks is the “no-warning” aspect of it. I had all kinds of plans for today: get up early, work out, fast all day and continue on my way to a healthy weight.

The throbbing pain in my left-hand food (just below my big toe) put a friggin’ screeching halt to all of that.

So now I’m back to the “colchicine diet,” as I call it. Not a good diet, to be sure. Plus, two attacks in two weeks has me worried, so I’m seeing my doctor on Friday. I probably won’t update until after that. Thanks for the comments and support!
