Now increased to 100 x 100.

And a note to all readers. Whilst you are adding a profile picture, why not add a few notes about your “gout status” in the bio area? It is easier to make replies relevant if your personal info is available, though I quite understand if you prefer to keep this private.

Useful information can include:

Yourself: – Age, height, weight, gender, length of time you have had (or suspected) gout, joints affected, family history of gout (if any), other conditions, current medications.

Diagnosis – Has gout been confirmed by joint aspiration? If not, how has gout been diagnosed.

Treatment – full history of medication (and any alternative treatments) taken.

Test results – These should be numbers (with unit of measure) not low / normal / high grades. Particular relevance is uric acid, but other results may be relevant.

Or simply go back through your posts and copy the information that you have already shared into your profile, where it is much easier to find.

Tavery,

You look better than your feet!
