Apple cider vinegar is good relief for it along with concentrated cherry juice and vicodin or morphine...

What's worse, gout or a bad case of hemorrhoids?

I think rectal gout would be worse.

Sex is good therapy too. Told him that the other day, hoped it helped perk him up. There is a drug available to help control gout, a buddy of mine takes it, has some nasty side effects though.

ok call me stupid but what exactly is gout?? I though it was that goo you put in between tile...........

Gout is a kind of arthritis. It can cause an attack of sudden burning pain, stiffness, and swelling in a joint, usually a big toe. These attacks can happen over and over unless gout is treated. Over time, they can harm your joints, tendons, and other tissues. Gout is most common in men.

What causes gout?

Gout is caused by too much uric acid in the blood. Most of the time, having too much uric acid is not harmful. Many people with high levels in their blood never get gout. But when uric acid levels in the blood are too high, the uric acid may form hard crystals in your joints.

Your chances of getting gout are higher if you are overweight, drink too much alcohol, or eat too much meat and fish that are high in chemicals called purines. Some medicines, such as water pills (diuretics), can also bring on gout.

Jon being that you started out looking that bad, you right, I would hate to see you with it.

I bet some of my home made wine would turn that frown into a grin from ear to ear.

well I am screwed!

yea my dad gets the stuff bad most the time in both knees

After 20+ years of assorted kidney stones of all sizes, and a couple of years ago a big toe with gout for about a month, I can tell you that kidney stones win hands down as the most excruciating pain.

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.

Dave I have had a stone also, And hell I would hate to have to live off the difference of the two. I guess the length of time I had to deal with this gout may have been what made it so bad. I was over the stone in a couple of days, and I was at home to boot , thursday through Sunday at the track was rough.

Thanks Dave, I'm almost good to go now.
