The good news is that I'm still feeling pretty swell physically. I've even been exercising regularly now for over a week! It feels good to have some sore muscles and to work up a sweat again. The workouts haven't been too intense. Mostly just some short stints on the eliptical for 25 minutes or so, then some situps and then a couple of sets of pushups. I've been fairly surprised at the lack of joint pain in my wrists, hands and elbows when doing the pushups. That is a huge improvement. My ankles and feet are still a bit creaky and sore, but I attribute this more to prolonged damage from gout than any type of current attack.
This week has been the kickoff of a hectic summer for me. Between work conferences and planned trips, my updates could become pretty sporadic. After this Sunday, I will probably be out of touch for a good week +, be at home for a few days, and then will likely be gone for another nine days or so. After that, another two to three weeks at home and then I'll be gone for another couple of weeks. After that, a trip here, a trip there, some possibly large life changing events related to my job....... But, I will pop on here when I can to update my thousands and thousands of readers. Okay, so I made the last part up.
I will update after my doc appointment on Thursday. I will be receiving my new UA reading and will also be discussing lowering my Allopurinol dose to 300 or 400 mg/day with himi. I'm also going to ask him for some colchicine and give that drug a shot again. Until then.....
