gouty arthritis
"I was prescribed this drug for an attack of polymyalgia almost two years ago. Twice I have been on a reducing programme the ESA levels being at 41 going down to 8 .. the dosage 35 grams down to a maintenance size of 5 mg per day. This week still on 5 mg per day, I had my first attack of gout , the ESA level has gone  back to 35 . And my foot is swollen red and painful. I am still taking the 5 mg as directed , what is the dosage recommended for the treatment of gout?

I don't understand this. And I  cannot see the  hospital rheumatologist for a week or two."
