Advice? Have I brought this on myself....

Morning all,

I write this from my office, (stupidly volunteered to help out over the weekend!!)...

Now I don't have pain as such and no swelling or anything, but my legs are aching...the knees, ankles and hips even my shins and theighs (???) are aching like mad and are really stiff! I know its not muscular, I can feel it in the bones, I feel about 95!!

Could this be a gouty sign, and if so is it becasue I went to a friends house ladst not, got stinking drunk and then on staggering home fell into bed without so much as a second though for my allo tablet!!! I only realised I hadn't taken it once I had arrived at work, (was still half asleep and had a thumping head!!). Neadless to say I am drinking stacks of water (and coffee!!) to try and make myself feel a little better!

Is it possible that by missing a dose and drinking heavily I might have triggered the start of something???
