I need to check the first booster. 4 days after the shot my tongue itched.
My weird Covid side effect from the latest variant was Covid Gout.(see below how diagnosis was made).
My left foot during/post variant got very sore and turned red. It was painful to walk, and we ordered an adjustable cane to steady my trips to our mailbox and outside.
One of our neighbors, an ER doc, saw me limping/with the new cane, and asked me what was wrong. I told him and he said, “You have Covid Gout!”
I told him, that no one in our family ever had gout and with my RN wife/cheffing our healthy meals no way.
He told me how to look it up and how to treat it for about a week with topical steroid gels.
5 days later, my Covid Gout was gone.
