Gout attack in my knee is keeping me sitting down, ice on the elevated knee, water bottle next to me, only getting up to use the restroom and refill the water bottle.

It hurts to stand and it hurts to walk.

Even worse, it is Valentine's Day weekend - all of my local friends are with their partners doing romantic things this weekend.

I am in solitary confinement in my house with a bad knee, and this will pass eventually.
 
I get it. After breaking my ankle I had about two weeks of total bed rest and several more of mostly in bed. It can get you down if you let it.
 
Not getting me down rather enjoy it, watching physics videos educating myself. Do not miss anything social, go to occasional party on weekend.
 
With the cherry juice, the fresh pineapple, and the water I have been consuming, my knee is rapidly improving.
