I just take colchicine when I 'feel' flares-twinges. I don't need to take it everyday. Also at Target pharmacy it was 8 dollars for 60 pills since May, then in August it went to 28 dollars. An increase of 350% that is just rediculous. So the less I take the better.
I used to take asprin a lot before I knew I had gout and I think this was another factor my UA level was so freakishly high. But now I don't take any asprin at all.
Limpy, thanks. I know how you feel. I still know I have gout when I have a small twinge feeling but those are rare. But, I can't believe that it was only in May that it took me 10 minutes to put a sock on and it caused so much pain it was excruciating and I could not get around except with crutches. I live in Minnesota so in winter I will have to stop bicycling and I think in it's place I will go out for walks in the ice and snow for my exercise. You'll be walking in the snow too in Iowa. Here's to hoping to no more crippling flares.
