didn't get to ride today

[the Ferret]

Hopefully this will be it for a few years lol, and I will be back on the bike in a couple of days. Was hoping to run out the year on riding days, but it already has been a good year!

Blockhead how often were you being affected with it?

Django..truer words were never spoken! Lol

First attack I ever had I was in my early 30s. I would get it once or twice a year but it seemed each time I got it was worse than the time before. I finally went on a daily allopurinol regimen about 10 yrs ago when I was 45...hardly any flareups since.

I will say that I've had a lot of painful things happen to me over the years (broken bones, torn rotator cuff etc) but gout is about the worst.

So you are on the medicine and still get flare ups?
