So apparently you can get an attack of gout in the knee! I have it in my left foot as a result of treatment. The first attack hit me the week I got home after treatment. I woke up Wednesday with a little ache in my knee. By Thursday night I was in agony and could barely walk! My partner suggested it could be gout. I told her I never heard of it in the knee. Anyway, I took the meds my MO gave me and by Friday AM it had eased a smidge. I consulted Dr. Google and sure enough, it can manifest itself in the knee. The knee looked a bit swollen and red too.

Not much I can do other than take the meds, ice it down and ride it out. It's screaming this morning and causes pain of another dimension! Just needed to vent is all.... Ugghhh...
