I have been taking Allopurinol since September to lower my Uric acid. My MD started me on 100 mg and then raised it to 200 mg. I feel like I am experiencing more pain in my shoulders and neck even though my attacks were in my feet. Is this normal?
It might be normal. All depends on your uric acid levels.
Please can you tell us your last uric acid blood test results? Also, any previous results might be useful.
Other useful information is the number of years since gout was first diagnosed.
If you would like to login before you post, you can keep those personal gout facts in your profile. That makes it easier for you to track your progress as you get gout under control. Please note, this is entirely your decision – you still get help without logging in.
Please get back with the missing information as soon as you can, and I will try to explain if your pain is normal, and what you can do to minimize it.
