Gouty Arthritis
"Had a flare up for over two weeks, arthrexin, lengout, voltaren, codeine  from Panadeine forte (so I didn&#039;t have to take in dangerous levels of paracetamol)... none of it did anything for me. Spent 5 days in bed, and the next 12 days hobbling around hoping that the pain would go away eventually. Went and saw a new doctor, who mentioned Prednisone, and said that it had been used for treating gout for the last few years. Took 50mg dosage in the late morning, was walking around within 5 hours, but still cautiously as I wasn&#039;t sure that it had just numbed everything, or had actually cured my ailment.  The second 50mg dose in the evening and by 10pm there zero pain or discomfort, I could&#039;ve gone for a 10k run without issue!"
