I often get severe Ankle pain which lasts for 5 to 7 days and fades away, this happens once in 4 or 5 months. In last three months I got this 3 times. When checked blood uric acid level, it is 5.8 which falls in to normal category but I was asked to avoid high protein food. On the other hand when blood sugar was checked the hba1c level is 6.2. Average glucose is 131. Can some one please tell me is this gout or some other diagnosis is required before this is concluded as gout
