Duke Discovery Yields Potential New Treatment for Gout

[tonyccc1]

I have had gout for years, and tried just about everything without success.I reduced meat to,

minimum once a week, stopped alcohol altogether.I was having LOTS of fruit and vegetables

and my gout was worsening.

Finally I have read something about Excessive fructose increasing uric acid.I experimented

reducing my fruit intake to 1 a day, and bingo within days I saw a dramatic improvement.

Im 26 and I have have a pain on the outside of my big toe knuckle and it feels like I broke or badly bruised the bone.... Its not excruciating, I can touch it and not have alot of pain but walking is extremely difficult.... is it possible that I just bruised bone? I wear flip flops alot and they dont have much support.

Suffering now, on the upswing from a acute attack. At its worse the gout in my ankle felt like someone poured crushed glass and tacks into my ankle then doused it with gas and lit it on fire. My whole ankle, foot, leg still hurts. Wonder if all this natural herb stuff is just a ad for snake oil.

gout is so painful. i don't care how tough you think you are. i've had it a couple times and it's more painful than any operation or injury i've ever suffered in my life. just a sheet gently touching any part of my foot caused excruciating pain the morning following a day when i felt just fine when i went to bed. didn't even see it coming. if you ever wake up and feel like someone beat your foot with a sledge hammer, you have gout.

@tlv156 - I know how you feel man. even a very slight breeze makes the area ache, feel like it's on fire, and very stiff and sore.

[thecoulsonnightclub]

sounds like my story, i been a gout sufferer since i was 17 yrs old, standard meds didnt work, i have several notacable tophi. and my 24hr urin tests show a level of over 600, where it should be less than 200. i am now 41, at 30 yrs old i could barely walk, and by 33 i was wheelchair bound and could not get out of bed. it hit home watching this as i related 100% not due to the gout and tophi i had to have total knee replacements, i am more active but still suffer from crippling pain.

[davemustainee2]

If you hit your foot with a sledge hammer and then set it on fire , that's what the pain from gout feels like !

[davemustainee2]

i'm on day 20 of my latest attack , it started in my right elbow then moved to the right shoulder,right and left knee, then to both feet and ankles. I'm able to walk on crutches a little bit now ,it's almost over for this time . This is about the 30th attack in 11 years and everytime I wish I was dead!

[4chango]

@Catherine8raw: Crushed celery seeds is one.

[Catherine8raw]

@4chango yes. Also, Candida albicans can cause gout via raising its nasty by-products one being uric acid. Also, high insulin decreases uric acid excretion, so a paleo diet may help

[4chango]

@MegaFran1982: There is a natural way.

[livingthedreamable]

yes any updates?
