Marcie, I'm so glad you're in the final stretch of your treatment, and I
hope everything will be ok with your eyes.
Rob was on allopurinol for years due to gout. After they prescribed the
medication, he had no more flare-ups.

That medication is alapurinal. David took it for gout and I took
it before and during chemotherapy something to do with putting
calcium back in my bones or something.
By the way, I guess noone has shared my good news yet When I
saw the doctor on Monday before I was supposed to have
chemotherapy, he told me that the results of the PET scan were
that the findings showed that the cancer is gone! He said that I
should have someone read the report to me. I had my office
manager read it to Terry and me. And it said what he told me. I
had to delay my treatment until next Tuesday because I am still
taking antibiotics for cellulitis. I'm also having trouble with
something going on in my eyes. So I went to the ophthalmologist
and I'm taking something for that. But I'm on the home stretch
and everything seems to be like peaches and cream from here on as
of now. Thanks everyone for your prayers and kindness.

Rob had gout in his right foot, and there were times he was
almost in tears. There was one time he had to play a wedding in
his slippers, if my memory serves me right.
They put him on Elperinal, not sure of the spelling, but it made
a world of difference. He had no symptoms after that.

I have got my know what is going through. Fortunately I never
had a reaction to the medication. It's very painful I had in my
right ankle and I could barely walk.
