When a vegan gets gout
by from on (#3TJMR)
A mysterious pain in my right ankle woke me up one summer morning as insistently as the fire department hammering on the front door. Tylenol did not help and by noon the ankle was the size of an eggplant, but bright pink. The pain felt like the worst sunburn you have ever had in your life combined with the sort of explosion of agony you feel when you bang your shin on a stone coffee table.
