I dealt with the gout pain well enough buy eating aspirin like candy. But for the stones only Morphine in the emergency room is strong enough to kill the pain. Then if you don't pass the stone in the emergency room they send you home for the "wait and see if it will pass" treatment & only give you damn near useless Vicodin for the pain. Vicodin will knock the edge off the pain a little, but it really isn't strong enough to kill both the stabbing pain & the pressure pain of a stuck/slow moving kidney stone.

Hope you have a quick recovery Blake.

Ouch

The gout? From here it looks like Blake is suffering from a case of the ugly but thats about it.


Pain meds are pointless to me and Ive had them all. They either knock me on my @ss so that I sleep for a week or they are like eating Flintstone vitamins. Vicodin is good for headaches and stubbed toes.


Take care Blake.

Thanks , It's a shame they don't make a pill for ugly





Take care Blake.

Thanks bud..............

Blake glad your feeling better.I have never had it and I don't want it as well.

I'm a Vietnam vet. I got gout 4 yrs ago. The Va has me taking this pill every day to help control it--Allopurinol--300mg--then for pain they gave me--indocin --three times day as needed (25MG each). Have only had 2 fair ups in two yrs. You can get this in your ankle or elbo. The elbo didn't hurt just swole up big. Get the cherry juice at health store or start learning to eat them. This is cause each person has a differnt source to cause this. I know someone that butter beans does him in ,mine is alot of red spicey sauce mix. Other people --shrimp--You learn what crawling is all about again. Good luck--Fastfrog

I really don't know yet what caused mine. My doctor said that if you don't eat anything to excess It probably wouldn't flair up.

Well there goes shrimp fest at Red Lobster huh..............

ive had gout 3 times already ....but ever since i lost this weight and eat so, so healthy i havent had a flair up since

All I know is after seeing Blake in that kind of pain . I sure hope I never get to experience it!!

There you go that's what it is all about................ It's the rich man's ailment, rich food, living like a king.

I hope you don't either................. But there's a couple of people I hope do.

Oh HELL NO!! Endless Shrimp will NOT be taken from me

I've had it for years before I even knew what it was. In the beginning it would start in the joint next to the big toe and I just thought I had stubbed it or something. As it progressed it would start in one foot and then as it got better move into the other foot. Later it started in the ankle and did the same and sometimes into the knee. Originally I was prescribed endomycin for it but my body got used to it and am now on the allopurinol every day and it has cut down on the attacks. Sometimes it will flare up and I'll take some cochicine [sp] and it will know it out but a couple of times I have had to get a shot for it. Those who have never had it prob can't imagine the pain but at times I've had to crawl because I was unable to walk.

As mentioned the doctor said red meat and sea food but there is a long list of stuff including green beans that can contribute to it.

well its back .... and worse then ever ...so ive let myself go again with my healt and this is my body telling me to quit ...... this time its in my left foot .....would wish the pain on anyone

Nick! is this your way of getting out of the racing at the bash? .....j/k get well soon

shit ... i will be there on cruches if i have too

Let's hope that's not the case.

It hurts worse than getting slapped in the sack!.....Here is what works for me...
Pour as much apple cider vinegar as you can stand to drink into a glass and chug it....yea I know but, it works...good for weight loss too...once a day.
Cherry concentrate...you can find it at Wal-Mart....daily.
Drink as much water as you can stand to drink....daily.

yep the last 2 remedies usually works for me , plus i usually eat 3-4 bananas a day till its gone

Blake you could look worse like this! so gout ain't so bad is it?


Randy

Bwahahahahaha! nice.

Well, they say Gout is a Rich Man's sickness.........how's that workin for ya??

Hope your better soon Nick.

Bill

Hope you get to feeling better Nick............. I have been watching my diet and it seems to help.
