Have you had your thyroid function tested? If you haven't you should just in case.
Never considered this.
My gout issues began a few years prior to my Thyroid being cancerous.
Removed in '13 and now on Levothyroxine 150 mg.
I'll have to chat w/my Endo about the med dosage.

Hypothyroidism and gout often coexist and may have biologic mechanisms in common."
