Any suggestions for treating gout?

[Enthusiast]

I have a history of gout. But I have been gout free for several years.

The last time I had a severe long lasting gout event I went on Allopurinol. I had been on Allopurinol but quit it after it started to irritate my throat. Last time I had gout for over a month. So I quit the allopurinol and got better.

So, no more allopurinol for me.

Because of a damaged gut due to a severe gluten sensitivity issue I can no longer take NSAIDs.

I have been taking colchicine. Today they recommend only three pills per day. I used to take enough that it had to be considered an overdose. Colchicine isn't getting it done either, but unlike the NSAIDs, I am not having internal bleeding issues.

For pain I'm taking as few vicodin as I can by with.

The worst problem is the gout is in my left hand. Anything and everything hurts my hand. Good thing I'm right handed. This typing hurts very bad. Washing my hand is very difficult. I went almost a week without a shower because I could not lather myself.

Anything? I would greatly appreciate anything.
