Can we people with gout qualify for FMLA
bl530ParticipantWhen I took the blood test it showed that, my liver, kidneys, white blood cells all checked out fine. At first he only prescribed the Allo and then I told him what about Colcrys he then said well it wasn’t that necessary but he would prescribe it. He kinda was also bothered that I told him I had did some research online and he said don’t believe everything I read and that he has been prescribing gout patients for years, this is just damn confusing.
I will fix my profile when I get to a computer because it doesn’t let me do it on my phone.
I really appreciate your help also
bl530ParticipantI read on one of your pages that we should start at 100mg so I guess thats why I’m hesitant to start the Allo
bl530ParticipantSo I went to my doctors he prescribed me Colcrys and Allopurial 300 mg. He said take the Colcrys for a week then start taking the Allo. I’m actually afraid to take the Allo because of all the bad stories I hear about people having really bad outbreaks. And I noticed a lot of people start off at a lower mg of the Allo. Just don’t know what to do anymore.
Sorry been away due to my child being born and there where some complications with the delivery ect

bl530ParticipantMy father in law is a pharmacist
bl530ParticipantHey thanks for the respond. All my doctor said is I need one of the meds, but never prescribed colchicine, thats why I asked if I need to go to some type of specialist. When I did the blood work he checked everything else, like white blood cells, etc. I wasnt sure if he used the % when I said 11. I just figured he did he said that he wanted me at 5.
I asked my father in law about colchicine and said I’m not suppose to take it every day, but I have read that people take it everyday till the levels go down. He said in the 50 years he has been giving people gout prescriptions he has never prescribed someone to take it everyday only when there is a flare up they take it. I’m just totally lost
