Yea, it really sucks. I inherited it from my father and started getting the occasional flare ups since my late teens. I usually get it in my ankles, and at its most intense I cant even walk on it. Awful stuff, there really isnt anything you can do for relief except pop some ibuprofen and ride it out. Hurts as much as breaking a bone.

My dad has it, changing you diet helps and there are prescription medications to reduce flare ups

Yea, ill eventually start taking allopurinol, but id rather avoid having to take meds everyday for flareups that I get on average once or twice a year. As for diet, reducing the intake of foods rich in purines definitely helps. Unfortunately that includes hoppy beers, which I do notice as being one of the more powerful triggers (along with dehydration). Though as far as relief goes once you get a flareup, ive found that nothing is really effective for reducing inflammation and pain other than time.

That's what I get for too much shellfish and beer. I've been popping Aleve pills like candy and drinking pure apple cider vinegar

Avoid shellfish and alcohol. Standard behavioral gout prescriptions. Both are inflammatory and gout is an inflammation issue.

Sitting in a Kroger parking lot smashing sushi and chain-smoking for a bit. Avoiding going home because my dude wouldn't clean up one small mess, so I got pissed and stopped cleaning all the things I clean, so now the apartment is some hellish abomination and I neither enjoy being in it nor want to give in to him not doing his share.

It will be when I stomp in there and throw all my dirty clothes in the living room. Equality in all things!

Seriously. If I was in a relationship that got to that point, I'd just say 'Bye Felicia' and be on my way.

I don't think they should break up, just sort themselves out. Organizing your living space is therapeutic and afterwards they can have make up sex.

Sorry to break the bad news, but buttholes are rich in purine, and heavy consumption of them can lead to a buildup of uric acid in the blood. You're gonna have to cut them from your diet.
Based on soundgardens music,etc.. am surprised he did not use an actual noose, like back in the day old school shit.

Whatever man. Guess I'll just keep paying 50% of all our expenses, doing 90% of the housework, and getting my way 10% of the time. I'll just be taking 40% more hours at work and studying 70% harder next semester.

Never fall in love with a youngest child. They're totally spoiled and devoid of logic.
