Colchicine
"I get flare ups of gout, almost always in the largest toe joint sometimes often, and then not for months.  But I ALWAYS have an 11 pill series of Colcrys with me.  I don't travel ANYWHERE without it and my indomethicin.  4 pills the 1st day, then one a day for 7 days.  The pain is better after the 1st pill, less the second day and usually I can put a shoe on, walk and drive on day 3.

I suffered for years before I found out about colcrys, and spent many attacks in horrible pain, in the military, where all I could do was lace up my combat boots and soldier on.  I tried the "home remedies" with NO relief."
