About 2 years ago.
One of my favorite meals is BBQ and a beer!
Went to a local "rib crib" and chowed down. As usual for me, l ordered ONE beer and nursed it through the meal and then had a small glass of water. No biggie!
About 5 hours later, I headed out to get the mail, I noticed my right ankle was painful, but since I crushed that heel, i just hobbled on out to the mailbox.
On the way back, every time i put my right foot down, i thought the top of my head would come off🤯!
By the time I got back to the house, I couldn't put my right foot to the floor and it hurt as badly as the day I broke it! It absolutely throbbed with pain.
About 8pm, we headed to the local ER.
GOUT!!!!!
I have tentatively tried BBQ since. No problem. I'm afraid to even attempt a beer! 😜
They gave me a strong steroid to work on the inflamation.
I DID NOT SLEEP for the next 36 hours!!!!
