I have not given up on this topic. I have been doing heavy online research for information daily. I have found many interesting things. One of the big things I have found out is that my 7+ year condition with psoriasis seems to have caused my gout condition, psoriatic arthritis.

Quote:

Acute psoriatic arthritis can also stimulate a type of gout. Gout is a form of arthritis or inflammation about a joint. The inflammation is caused by excess uric acid in the blood. Attacks occur suddenly and are accompanied by great pain. The big toe is a frequent site. Hyperuricemia (excess uric acid in the blood) occurs in 10-20% of patients with psoriatic arthritis, but classical gout is uncommon. Acute gouty arthritis is usually self-limiting and lasts, untreated, a couple of weeks.
