Hi Laura sorry to hear about your mom. I was on revolade for 17 days and one day my feet were really hurting at work as I'm on my feet all day. That night the pain in both my feet was absolutely horrendous. I stopped taking the revolade as I thought it could be side effects. My feet and toes were swollen and my toes started to go purple. Went to see consultant and they are now treating me for gout. Now into my 11th day feet still not back to normal but getting less painful. Sometimes you can get a build up of uric acid have a look on google. Hope your mom gets sorted soon.
