 Doc pulled up recent blood tests and was like "Yeah your liver levels are fine. I'm still going with gout. Take this diarrhea pill, and maybe this steroid if the diarrhea doesn't work." Couldn't order an x-ray, because the tech was out. 

I am just staying off it one more day. If my blood doesn't have excess uric acid or creatnine levels, it seems highly unlikely it is gout.
