I've been taking Tart Cherry pills from GNC. Not sure if it helps or not, but it certainly doesn't hurt. I had hoped the Allipurinol had it licked, but I guess not. Need to wait for this round to subside and get my blood tested again to see if the dosage needs to be upped to the maximum.
 
Did your physician recommend a low Purinol diet for you. The list of no no foods might take away some of the joys of living, but reduced bouts with pain and suffering might be worth the sacrifice.
 
Compared to the few other recent posts above (of which I wish you better health luck and smiles), this is chump-change.

After a long break, my apartment buildings computer room has re-opened, complete with a new server protection system that restricts near enough everything - no videos of any kind, most forums (this is one of the few that does work; likely this site 'slips under the wire') & main/usual image hosting sites are blocked, yahoo is blocked, ..but somehow most of the working PC's there have some gambling software installed; of which after 1.6 years, still only 7 of the 10 actually work.

But since the service is considered a 'free gift' by my buildings association, they have no requirement to provide correctly maintained and working 'public computers' & a connection that isn't restricted to barely enough to get email to work.
 
Didn't have that problem, they were nice, but it took forever. 30 min to get there, in the waiting room for over an hour (watched and entire episode of Gunsmoke) 20 min to test and than another 30 to get back to work. At least I was on the clock the whole time.
 
Cant' tell if I'm having yet another Gout flair up, or if I've sprained my right foot. It's hard to tell sometimes. It doesn't really feel exactly like a gout attack as it usually turns red and gets warm/hot to the touch.
Hurts right on the in-side step of the foot, starting about an inch or so back from where the big toe connects, and it's also starting to affect the rest of my foot from the way I walk.
 
Yeah, it's gout. Just came from the doctor. Gonna flush it out with some Colchicine. He printed out the "Gout sufferers diet plan" for me again.
It says essentially to avoid, Alchohol, meat, fish, chicken, shellfish, oatmeal, whole grain breads, dried beans, peas, wheat bran, green peas, sugary drinks, spinach"
But I can have, coffee, diet soda's, breads and cereals (as long as they are not whole grain and do not have oatmeal) cheese, eggs, milk, vegetables (no peas, lentils, mushrooms), cherries. But since I am also diabetic, on a low fat diet, and my cholesterol is high I shouldn't be eating most of that either).

So, basically I can drink water and have what real food eats for dinner, salad!!! Are you depressed now, I am!!
 
Changes with Miss America Pageant have removed any reason I had to watch. No Evening gowns or swim suits kills my wish to watch. Gretchen Gopher Puke says that it's not about their appearance, but about their minds. H8ll, if I want to watch a Fat Slag Extravaganza, I just go to any mall or Walmart.
 

But don't you get excited hearing their answers to the questions each of the final 5 are asked near the end of the show? I know that's why I would watch.
 
Had to do that once. The b8tch at the lab treated me like I was some kind of druggy a$$ criminal.
Well, guilt before trial. I wouldn't be surprised if a lot of the checks were for parolees

Sorry to hear the gout flaired up again. When I went to the hospital to get confirmation that I had gout, the nurse leaned over to me and whispered, "don't do the diets, they never work". I took the pills, eat what I want and have had 3 minor re-occurrences that I knock down immediately with Teva-Methacin.
