I recently found out that I have gout. I had my first official attack in the foot (big toe to be specific) on Saturday. Flip flops are my new best friends. I still have a small amount of pain in my foot but it is much better than it was on Sunday. Looking back I think I might have had minor attacks in my hand and my heal but brushed them off to Kuk Sool injuries.
To manage my gout I've gone vegetarian. I've been meat free for five days. So far so good. Unfortuneately there are a lot of non meat foods such as spinich, cauliflower, oats, etc...that are high in purines so I'm really limited on what I can eat. I have a headache but I'm not sure what's the cause. So much going wrong with my body. I'm just falling apart : )

Aw! Hang in there girl! My dad gets gout but not as bad as it used to be. You're doing the right thing watching the diet..keep low on the protein. My dad still eats meat but added a lot more veggies. Stay away from beans, basil, and chocolate (Ugh I know!) Take care!
