Gout usually hits you in the joints. Its little crystals of Uric acid that are sharp and cause swelling. Very painful. I used to get it pretty bad a few years ago. The medication worked great though and would knock it out quickly. It had some unfortunate side affects for a truck driver..diarrhea. Fortunately I haven't had a flare up in over 5 years.

I am Hauling Bulk for Schneider I really enjoy it Just got back from Canada this week good thing about bulk is you get to pick your days off and I do get home when I put my time in the Long sleeves and PPE is a must with some of the chemicals we haul .Better to be a little hot them eat up by a chemical.
as stated Some of the places we go into will require you wear Long sleeves and hardhat .I have learn a trick if your work order tells you to wear your PPE look at what the guys at the plant are wearing and follow their lead -

whenever I'm at the OC and have to wear my boots, I wake up with charlie horses in my legs and my feet get sore and I start walking like a cripple. Away from the OC wearing my regular shoes (with prescription orthotics), no pain and no waking up with leg cramps.

Well I did end up getting a lite pair of boots with the zipper on the side and some gel pads. Best thing I could ever done.

Been waiting a year for this. Saw the Google camera car last summer when I was at Carry going to WY. Put this in google maps: 39.658182,-91.785441 and then drag the street view guy to the arrow and turn to the West bound side and you'll see my old Carry truck and pneumatic tank.
TruckingTR1 and superpet39 Thank this.
