Shellfish, beer, hydrochlorothiazide and heredity are the leading causes of Gout.
Red meat is after those.

Hmmm I dont know what the hydrocholro... is but I dont eat much shellfish other than crawfish season and dont really drink beer, just liquor, and dont think my parents ever get it
Eta: I had red meat at least once a day the 5 days leading up to this attack

If it's just in your toes thank your lucky stars, it runs in my family and affects all of my joints. It's like having the bends in a single joint. My knee will swell up the size of a cantaloupe and there is no walking on it - full crutches to the doctor to get 2 shots in the arse.

Yeah because it couldn't be wine coolers and brussels sprouts right? I'd be good with that

I know someone with gout that found much relief with turmeric.

Drinking water regularly helps flush the uric acid out of your system. This keeps it from crystalizing between your joints.

Absolutely accurate. It's not 100% but if you have gout problems drink a shite load of water every day.

Knocking back tons of beers watching college football is going to make it worse.

I had it once. It was weird. My big toe hurt like hell. I am not fat either.

All these years pain free. Never knew I had gout.

Fresh cherries help, too. I've never had it anywhere but in an ankle I broke playing high school baseball.
Indocen or indomethicin (spelling??) will knock it out. Take two, drink a gallon or so of water as that Rx will make you sick at your stomach but it damn sure knocks it out in a few hours.

5’11” 180#. It isn’t a fat thing, but I am approaching old. What it is is miserable. Cherry juice. Daily.

All these fat dudes in this thread claiming they aren’t fat

My dad passed the gift to me. I’ve had it in my ankle 4 or five times and once in my big toe. Neither one of us are fat. Coworker gets it every now and then...not fat.

You have GOT to get your ph level below 6 for a few days for your body to handle the uric acid.
Get the Ph test strips.
4oz of water with 1/2 teaspoon of baking powder thoroughly mixed in.
3X a day for 3-5 days.
That will take care of it.
Manage it with fresh cherries or Black cherry supplements vitamins. ($12/mo. on Amazon)
Watch your beer consumption.
ETA: Stupid Earl Grey teas, green or black is my trigger.
