I'm now in my third consecutive day of being bedridden with gout in my right knee, barely able even to hobble to the toilet.
This invalid thing is getting old, real fast.
Drinking lots of water. Don't have any ice, so I can't use that on my knee. Wish I had cherry juice.
My legs are so sore from having to distribute my weight in unfamiliar ways. I take Naproxen and Ibuprofin, but it only helps a little.
Sleeping is difficult, because there are only certain ways I can lay pain-free, and if I roll over in my sleep, the pain wakes me up.
I feel like my life has come to a complete stop. I'm ready for this to be over.
