I'm really worried about my uric acid level being at 9.2. Is that really dangerous for my kidneys? I'm hoping to bring it down naturally. Is it possible to do that without medication, or are meds the only way to go?

The swollen vein and persistent pain in your wrist suggest a possible complication from the IV insertion.
Consider consulting a vascular surgeon or a phlebologist for proper evaluation and treatment.
They may perform imaging tests (e.g., ultrasound) to assess the vein's condition.
Possible causes include:
Phlebitis (vein inflammation) Thrombophlebitis (blood clot in the vein) Nerve compression or damage
Seek medical attention to prevent further complications and alleviate symptoms.

You can consider taking ferrous sulfate or ferrous fumarate iron supplements, which are generally well-tolerated and less likely to interact with HCQS
