I m asking on behalf of my brother who has an ileostomy. He s been having hot flushes followed by a pins and needles feeling all over his body. A recent blood test suggested that he has high levels of uric acid; he s been previously diagnosed with gout . What s causing the flushes/pins and needles? Can it be anxiety related?
