    My last check on some bloodwork. This level is pretty normal for me. Haven’t had any flare ups for ages. Well until this week which is about a month and a half after this uric acid test.

    Soy is processed.? There are possible links from soy to low thyroid function.? Low thyroid function links to… you guessed it, gout.? Short term it may look good.? Long term.. unknown. ? I stay away from anything processed.? There are enough whole foods out there we can eat to get the nourishment we need.? Eat those, eat natural.? This is my opinion and what I do for myself.??

    well this is my first time with the purple foot, the gout  pain seemed to subside last night.  I also know from reading that blood is getting in the foot, but the venous system is not functioning properly.  I will be going to the doc tomorrow.  The foot returns to normal color within 1 minute of elevation.

    What doc you think?  rhuemotologist.  podiatrist? Emerg room?

    thanks.

    Having no insurance and being out of work living off my savings changes the way I think about doctors.
