Most who have been dealing with Gout can tell immediately at the first hint of pain weather it is gout or something else.? I am now among those that can.? Anyway, I seem to notice that my gout tends to flare from late summer through mid-winter.? I cannot recall having a flareup in spring/early summer.? My mother has gout also, and she seems to experience the same kind of cyclic flares.? Anyone else?
I have pretty much to sme pain year round. Not the swelling or bring a tear to your eye. But the kind that the longer i'm on my feet the worse it gets. One Colchicine twice a day every day just to keep the beast at bay.
I also notice that my gout symptoms are worse towards the end of the day.? Bedtime is the worst!? They are usually tolerable by the time I rise, and best mid-morning to late afternoon.
So?I take it you are?on your feet most of the day. Last year my feet got to feeling so good?I thought maybe?I could ween myself off colchicine that lasted about a week. The pain came back so bad?I had to get back on it i've tried this a couple of times?I just can't make it without it. Limpy
Sore after walking a while regardless of the time of year. I don't know if it's bad shoes, bad feet, gout, old age or overweight…or even ennui? Probably all contribute.
Walking in flops is always comfortable so I am going to go primarily with bad shoes as the major culprit.

If I ever got rich I'd find a shoemaker in Milan or? Florence?to make me a couple pair that actually look like my FEET. A friend with really bad feet had a pair made to fit in Brooklyn…ugly looking cop-type black oxfords. They cost him $600 for 1 pair. OWWWWW!

I have traced my feet on a piece of paper and no shoe that I have ever worn looks even VAGUELY like the drawing. Well maybe one with a big front toe box that was popular in Sweden ?for about 20 minutes 2 decades ago.
