Gout pain is actually a complicated process, Julie. Because of that, some people do not get the painful immune system response that average people get. So, in some ways that’s a blessing. But, it also means you get a huge uric acid crystal burden before you get to treating your high uric acid.
However, it seems like you have a good idea to start allopurinol. So, let’s hope that idea becomes a good plan. If you need help with planning your allopurinol therapy safely, just ask.
