I woke up yesterday with severe big toe pain. No trauma to it, no nothing. Just woke up to pain. No swelling, slight redness to the entire foot with the veins popping. Just pain and the inability to walk without more severe pain.

Sucks.

Textbook gout. Sorry brother.

Just like that. That sucks, man. I can't get 20 feet, limping and walking on my heel, before I have to sit down due to the pain. I got a fucking concert to go to tonight.

Sorry to hear that. Mine isn't nearly that painful. I think I may have just strained mine somehow.

Some serious irony considering the nature of this thread. I think TLO put a hex on you.

I don't guess I have to tell you to go to the doctor and deal with this ASAP. Good luck.

Update.

My toe no longer hurts.

Thank you.

Samsies.

I’ve been going through a gout attack since the 22nd, today is the first day off crutches. I’m able to limp around. Sorry for my gross feet pic, but feel free to sell on OnlyFans.

Shit dude!! My toe/foot never changed colors that bad !!! Jesus, please tell us you’re pranking us. ****! Are you sure that’s not ready to fall off? Christ!!! I’ll pray for you or something.

It was by far the worst attack I’ve had. It’s definitely not a prank, my veins were wild as well. The pic doesn’t do justice at all. Been eating ibuprofen and colchicine as a side dish ever since.

You got to be careful what you stick those things into!

Holy shit. That’s a bad one.

What caused it?

My knee or ankle sometimes hurts when I drink but it’s gone within 24 hours. I’ll limp around a bit though.

I’ve been off my medication for 2 years, I recently lost a ton of weight and haven’t had any issues. On the 18th I bbq’d a tri-tip and literally ate 3/4 of the damn thing. I didn’t think anything of it, but I learned the hard way.

Just get some blood work done and see if your uric acid is high. I’m pretty sure take a lot of protein and consume a lot of protein, so it’s very possible you’re getting mild attacks.
[Reply]

Yup. Weight gain/loss can be a major contributor of an attack. Of course meat as well (especially that much). Man, take it easy. Rest and Elavation. You don’t need to have blood work done to see your Uric levels.
[Reply]

How do you see your levels without blood work? It’s been elevated everyday, I’m on the couch all day, only get up to pee. I’m drinking water non stop.
