    Thanks a lot GoutPal,

    Reading your comments, I understand that gout can be a multi joint issue and be there on a continuous basis, meaning that it affects you at all times, not only during gout attacks…. some kind of chronical gouty condition.

    If that is so, knowing that I do have Hyperuricemia, after a visit to a proper rheumathologist, I might have to face a long term anti gout treatment with Allopurinol and Colchicine (to prevent gout crisis)… on the other hand, if I take Allopurinol and I DO have an attack, that would prove that my problems are hyperurimic/gouty and not from other possibly nastier sources (which don't have a real cure).

    I'd be the happiest guy if what it takes to live without these pains is only to treat it with Allopurinol; even if it is for life…..

    Will keep you posted. 

    Best Regards,

    SF
