alcohol, red meats, grains, rich food all make gout worse.  Like jim said you used to see pictures of rich people with it in feet.  It became known as a rich mans disease.  Its also hereditary & blood measure medicine water pills can cause it.

its yuckie. Jagerbombs for fun or Soco and Lime for a nice smooth shot; thats my preference. But I only go out for a drink once every month or so or for special occassions. Drinking doesnt have the appeal to me it used to.

Just dont drink when you have flareups it makes it worse.  The doctor put me on 3 kinds of medicine a different one a month at a time.  One made me major sick.  Nothing worked much then I tried the cherrys do 6 a day for 4 days then 4 a day for a week, you should be much better by then do 2 a day to keep it under control.  You can also get cherrys at walmart but that gets very expensive its cheaper to buy the pills adkins sells them but its about $25.00 a bottle vs $13.00 on amazon.

I never got it in my feet I can only imagine how bad the pain is.  I had it in both thumbs & the pain was beyond control(the doctors kept me on hydrocodine it helped some).  Just trying to tie my boots before going to work was a chore.

I cant put on socks or walk when it flares up. Is been like 4 months since the last time, but no matter what I do it keeps coming back, so I'm gonna give the cherries a shot.
