Aren't you taking an NSAID like motrin, naprosyn, indocin? Please tell me they didn't put you on allopurinol.

Well, someone hits the nail on the head. I'm on Indocid, but I was given both Indocid and Allopurinol at the start of this latest episode and told to take both together!. It was only last week that I was told I should not be taking the Allopurinol along with the Indocid. I'm 39 and had my first bout of Gout when I was 23, over the years this was the first time I was told not to take both together!.

So the situation now is, my right foot is totally red and swollen from just above my ankle to my big toe, I've a slight pain in my left big toe. When it started first I had pain in just my right big toe and knuckles of my left hand.

Best way to describe the pain in my right foot is that its on fire with a crushing feeling. Its totally red, swollen, hot and smooth.
