gout, acute
"colchicine really helped my gout flares when I took the 2 pills followed by 1 more pill but I also had some side effect.  my stomach hurt and I felt dizzy.  I am type II diabetic and my blood sugar levels were higher on the day I took colchicine.  My dr prescribed a daily dose of colchicine and I only took that for a short time.  I really had a terrible reaction to the daily dose.  I will continue to take it for sporadic gout attacks."
