June ‘25 Yankee

Hi Somer, have you taken Allopurinol tablets for your gout. Been on them 2 years and not had a problem since taking them and I suffered badly with it. Apologies turned this into a medical review:)
To tell the truth its only my 2nd attack. Had the 1st 5yrs ago so just pain killers for me at the mo.

Yep, this is the answer.
@somer1
Just give your doctors a call, it might take you a week to get through to them and a month for an appointment but Allopurinol will prevent further attacks.

@ComplyOrDie great work on the yankee, about as solid as you can get for June…
 
Gout, ouch, you have my sympathy pal...
And Mine ..... Very Painful.. , Drink Loads of water ., in this Heat especially ...
Cherry Juice - pure, not watered down . and actual cherries are good for easing gout , .
Asparagus can bring on Gout ... I avoid Hard Cheese - Cheddar e.t.c. , :cry:., which i like .
I was told by my Doctor , i couldn't have Allopurinol , unless i already was gout free .. ??.
Lot's of different things that trigger it i believe , Shellfish , Lager , Whiskey .. e.t.c. . e.t.c. .. ..... "Doctor " Chaang. ;) .
...................... Anyway , good Yankee C.o.D. , will get this on a.s.a.p. (y).:).
 
my brother suffers from gout and so do some of his friends , he was in Tenerife and the pharmacist recommended VOLTAREN RAPID 12.5MG, says it clears up in a couple of hours , was really cheap out there so he brought back a few boxes
