Ini gout jgn main² tau, silap makan boleh mati leyy, it happened to my late uncle ooo

Thank you mang, appreciate it.

Any baking soda or is there any specific baking soda.

where to buy this baking soda? how much cost?

Reduce red meat, beer (alcohol) and vegetables high in purine.

The steroids injection is to reduce the inflamation and to remove the build up of crystals formed by the high amounts of uric acid.

Of course keeping hydrated and/or maintaining a healthy lifestyle will help tremendously.

Source: I have gout - last attack (or pain) was more than a year ago

Do you have them both in the same joint? Does one medication take care of both?

Actonel good for you? Some problems reported:    http://www.drugs.com/comments/risedronate/actonel.html

It is amazing to just Google "actonel gout" and scan the titles without going to them!

A lot of controversy around this.

First, statistics say the gout will go away without treatment, in 7-14 days. Often no more attacks within 1-2 years.

So, anything taken before next attack years away looks like it is a miracle cure. Might really be good, but don't know.

On the other hand, allopurinol needs to be taken daily for years, and 80% patients fail to do so, so when an attack comes, they say allopurinol useless.

Extreme diets impossible to maintain for most people. Claimed that only animal proteins cause problem. Vegetables high in purine do not.

Baking soda can be dangerous because of high sodium just like spoons of salt. Neutralizing stomach acid destroys food safety barrier and reduces extraction of nutrients. Useless because the body has rapid re-balancing mechanisms if you try to change pH of blood.

So much more research and evidence needed. Proceed with caution.

Few months ago, I thought it was a fractured toe, since I bumped it.  Long after it healed, suddenly swollen hot again without any obvious reason.  After several days, found out most gout starts near big toe and is hot and inflamed whereas arthritis is cool. Colchicine traditional med, 2 tabs to be taken immediately then tapered off. Already late, so I took only one tab and next day all was fine, stopped and for a month so far, no more problems. I will not do allopuinol or weird diets.

When I bought it, only 20 sen per tab    but allopurinol 75 sen to be taken daily long term      We are lucky because in other countries colchicine is usually 10 X the price  due to drug company rip-offs

I have suffered from gout for like 12 years now.  Last year found a traditional/alternative herbs.  No gout for like 1 year.  But now it seems that I am immune to the herbs and gout keep coming back. Tried the baking soda treatment before.  Didn't worked much for me.  Was under allupurional at 300mg dose per day.  Never missed taking the medicine for about half a year.  But stop since uric acid reading never go below 400, and swelling non-stop through out the period I took allupurinol.

Now I try to control my diet by reducing protein and taking olive oil and applying ozonated olive oil where normally I got gout.  It helps to reduce the pain.

Only those who suffers gout can understand another gouter (?) suffering..

Do you know why so many hospital and doctor still exists in this century?
Because it works.

If baking soda helps to reduce the gout or cure it, then you should get the Nobel prize in medicine research or being recognize in the medicine industry.

Same thing apply to any miracle alternative they claim can cure cancer.

Hi all, my bro got gout about 3 year now..i observe him from taking medication like ponstan and other pill i dont know what, doesnt really help,, whenever we had a seafood dinner he really prepare like drinking a lot of water and recently i think he consume Apple Cider Vinegar a spoon before and after seafood dinner..i ask him when last time he a gout attack he said its been a year since he consume  apple cider vinegar no more problem, problem apple cider vinegar taste so bad .

U have good stuff here.. Yes,  gout can be freaking bad shit.. So whoever don't get it better don't talk about hospitals and medicines!

I went to multiple specialist but all goes to no use.. They just know how to rip off without caring ur previously used medicine as well as what u using now...

Baking soda is need to be taken at minimum dose... Need to watch out ur pressure as well... Alternatively can use lemon and baking soda to neutralize the pH...

My homemade cure.

2 table spoon of organic apple cider vinegar mixed with one tablespoon of honey.

Drink everyday.

Hey bro, how was your gout condition now??
