Gout

[Ruger34]

Well this sucks! Always thought hour was an old man thing! Heck I guess 43 is old these days! Seems I hit 40 and the check engine light came on and can’t get it out!

I've gotten it exactly twice.
Once in my big toe and the other time it was in my big toe and also made friends with my knee.
Had to sleep with no covers. Anything touched my toe or knee and it was an immediate and unforgiving shock of pain. I've broken bones, snapped tendons, been cut open with barbwire and have a good tolerance to pain.....but gout will **** you up.

My 1st experience with Gout was 1998 in Korea, the military put me on Allopurinol, it comes and goes back once in a while, but when I do have flare up I use Colchicine 0.6mg, it gets rid of it quickly.

Isn’t there a vaccine for it? I’m done with vaccines but thought I saw that somewhere.

What is this cursed thing! Woke up this morning to my big toe swollen and hurting to a level that make you very irritated very fast!

Never in my life have I ever had this crap! What makes it start? How to make it end?

Drink a quart of concentrated black cherry juice, in 3 sittings. Start taking juniper berry from an herb shop.

No

A few drops of CBD oil under the tongue and then swallowed helps with the inflammation.

No

Your right, it was shingles

Delta8 or delta9 cbd works great, just don't drive any on public roads...

So, my doctor gave me a scrip for the shingles vax. I'm 90% afraid to take it and 90% afraid to not???
My insurance actually covers it for my wife and myself without a scrip.
