I have gout
Had it for the last 48 hours in my right foot.
It's made me wake up screaming in agony for two nights in a row.
Had no fucking sleep hardly and feel dreadful.
It's the worst pain I've ever felt in my life.

Re: I have gout
Naproxen and a teaspoon of baking powder mixed in water is a good remedy Tone

No, but I handled tons of it in the 70's when I was stealing it!

Can't have baking soda because I take an Ace Inhibitor and a diuretic.

Unless you were sucking it when you were nicking it, it shouldn't be an issue

3 nights now with hardly any sleep.
This is by far the worst thing I've ever experienced.
Unbelievable pain.

Re: I have gout
They don't help, MJ. It's crystals of uric acid which form usually in extremities. The way to shift it is to somehow dilute the crystals but until that happens, it fucking hurts like Hades as it causes pain not dissimilar to arthritis.

Re: I have gout
Apparently the worst pain known to mankind are cluster headaches , people have been know to kill themselves the pain is so severe.
Toothache can be pretty bad too imo.
Isnt there a medication a women can get for period pain/ menstrual cramps over the counter that also eases gout? Cant recall the name tho

Re: I have gout
nobster,
it is a form of arthritis,
apparently.
how about that thing i tried with the honey and cider vinegar drink,
once or twice a day?
just a thought.

Indescribable.
Now I can't walk...even with a stick.
Doctor has said on the phone that he'll have some cochicine sent round to me.
With the fucking side effects that has, it's going down the toilet, not into my system.

Re: I have gout
I know a bloke who has it, suffered more in his old home (which still had lead pipes, which was why I asked - his doctor made the link) than now but said that it is that bad that he can't even put a sheet over it because it fucking murders him.
In terms of having an ounce or two of cotton lightly draped over it, that's got to be grim.
In terms of pain, meanwhile, I'm going to offer someone having to cough after having their chest cracked open for heart bypass surgery. They even give you a designated pillow they call a "teddy" for weeks afterwards that you have to clutch to you just so that everything doesn't pop out or open.

Re: I have gout
Had it one week today....No let up in sight.
Pain still absurd, swelling and redness worse, can't walk, even with a stick.
A fucking nightmare.

Re: I have gout
Now had it a fortnight.
Still, red, still swollen....still can't walk without a stick.
Pain around 50% as intense as it was though.
Still haven't taken fuck all for it.
