I am sure they will be able to give you medical advice pertaining to his specific type of gout as gout can affect people in so many different ways.

I know its very painful so best wishes for a speedy recovery.

I think I read a long time ago that uric acid is fat soluble. Meaning that is stored in our fat cells. At 5 weeks he is in prime fat loss mode. I imagine that his uric acid levels are getting higher because of the fat being used as fuel. It may take a while, but once the fat is off his levels should return to normal.
