Message: <blockquote data-quote="LittleGreyCat" data-source="post: 2603658" data-attributes="member: 6467">Thanks to all for the helpful information.I have been prescribed Colchicine and it does seem to be working so far.[Pro tip - don't read the warnings if you are feeling at all fragile. Most seem to end with "and then dial 999"]It is hard to pin down what might be the trigger, apart from the beer.I have had milder attacks in the past but never such a major attack on my hand.I am not overweight.I do exercise regularly.I am normally LCHF, in fact more so these last few months as I climb back on the wagon.I have not been drinking enough water but am trying to remember to drink more. This does seem to be helping generally.My BG control has gone haywire, though.This started before I took the Colchicine so I can't blame that.Noting Vitamin C I shall have to get a supplement.I updated another thread from 2019 which said that I had been tested for gout and had it ruled out.Possibly I am one of the 60% mentioned by [USER=517579]@KennyA[/USER] who get gout without high uric acid in the blood.We shall see in June.</blockquote>
