Do you have true gout-- elevated uric acid
or pseudogout--- which is a calcium issue? Colchicine can be very hard on you. It is a poison you know in high doses. Are you on Allopurinol? (for uric acid gout) Some gout attacks respond well to indomethacin. This is a pretty tough NSAID and not to be used if you have ulcers or any stomach bleeding tho. Gout attacks (uric acid) can follow illnesses. Any illness that raises white cells, can lead to a gout attack when over. As the white cells are metabolized away they release purines, which overload the system.
