Gout!

2 Jun 2008 - Under General By Mandrake

So after the fever and the ulcers, the other malady of my life came to haunt me again. I was working overnight till 5am and didn’t really moved much. Lo and behold, I felt a tingling sensation in my right foot and I thought it was nothing major.

When I woke up in the later in the morning, the pain was still there. I thought I have deep vein thrombosis because I didn’t really walked around much that night. I delayed going to the doctor for one day cause the pain wasn’t that bad. However, two days later, I decided to go to the doc just in case.

Doc suspected that I have gout so she gave me some usual medication after my Nurofen doesn’t work. I should be taking cataflam instead actually. Luckily I went to the doc, coz that afternoon, the attack really came and I just managed to take the medication in time for it to take effect.

One interesting thing about the doctor visit was that she was amused at my blood pressure. Apparently my pressure was 110/70 which was extremely good, especially for someone of my size. My usual pressure is around 120-140/80-90 which is a bit high, but still alright.

I wonder what I did to have that low pressure. Hmm.. ponders…

    You probably got low blood pressure because your brain doesnt really do all that much work compared with your groin.
