Hello All My gout has returned after a few months off, always in the same locations – ankles and feet usually. The problem I have is that I work about 45 minutes drive from here and then work in a reasonably mobile job. When my Gout kicks off I need really time off to just stick my feet up but in the past I have had gout attacks maybe two times in 3 months or so, these attacks may only last a short time as the naproxen and allipurinol do help – especially mixed with co-codamol to kill the pain a bit, but non the less even a day off adds on to your sickness record and I have breeched my permittable limit twice now
