gout

Hello Maryon,

I have had cellulitis in my arm (also after having all lymph nodes removed from that side). It was slightly swollen, red rash, and painful to touch. 

I had two weeks of heavy duty antibiotics (two types) which cleared it.

I hope you have seen an improvement in yours by now.

Thank you for that. I feel reassured it's c ellulitus and not gout . they took blood to rule out gout today. When something like this happens on your affected arm you worry it's start of lymphodema. 

I have my first T weds after 3 fec. I'm hoping it doesn't affect me too much as I already have dodgey hip joint and arthritis is lower disc enough to cause pain when walking. 

I remain upbeat and determined to stay positive. This Trojan horse C will not infect my motherboard! I believe thats what they call nerve centres of a pc!

I have gout in my foot very painful I'm on paclitaxel no 15 3 to go! All I have been given is iibuprofen tabs and gel! Good luck with your treatment x
