A member asked:
My uric acid level is high and my right leg toe frequently pains. is it a sigh of gout? i am on aspirin. is it contributing to my high uric acid? my sex drive is very low. should i check my testestorone?

Yes, yes, yes: You history suggest this could be gout but the attacks are more vicious. Low dose but not high dose aspirin can increase the uric acid by stopping its excretion. High dose may decrease uric acid. You may need a testosetrone as well as a general workup.
