I've had gout, but not in about 25 years or so.

It sucks. Don't want gout. Lots of shellfish in Florida too. Gotta be careful because that is my trigger. I don't drink much beer so all good there.

Ah consider yourself lucky.  I take a daily medicine to reduce the uric acid in my system and it helps, but I still get a flare-up about once per year.

The trends I've noted are continuing, I don't understand the UK data at all.  I can't see how these flareups are seasonal as the penultimate flare was in winter and this last was in summer.  I hope we're "done" of course but don't think that likely.  We could see another wave in Decemberish?

India is also a puzzlement.

I might have gout but most of my joints hurt so I cant tell
They won't let me give blood anymore. The burnt orange color scares the hell out of the doctors.

I take one too. Allopurinol. I asked the doc about stopping it, and he asked me if I really wanted to find out what would happen.

I said no, I'm good.

That’s the one med I am on- prescribed to help prevent kidney stones.   Those were not fun.

I get stones about once per year, even with the med. Yeah, they suck. I just don't want to go higher in the dose. I'm a minimalist when it comes to pills.

Luckily I haven't had any kidney stones but as y'all obviously know, it's the same blood conditions that lead to both gout and the development of kidney stones

I might have gout but most of my joints hurt so I cant tell
You'd know.  An acute gout flareup is so intense that there's no way to mistake it for anything else.

At its worst, I've had pain in my big toe that was so painful, just the weight of a thin bedsheet resting on the toe created unbearable pain.

I researched on the web and told my doc I was certain I had gout.  He thought there was no way, then he saw my toe and said "yup that's gout."

Sucks but there you have it.

so why does gout pick the big toe to attack

think about it theres just so many other places on the body that would make sense

It commonly manifests in the big toe but that's not the only location. Any joint can be attacked. I've had it in the ankle and elbow as well.

Keep your elbows off of wet bar tops and that wouldn't happen
