Hello,
Hopefully everyone reads this which I’ve written about in the past.
As with everything that enters our mouths, each person reacts very differently from others. Each individual has a unique physiology and what may work for someone might have terrible side effects for someone else. This is why I never suggest any medication or diet to anyone. Many people neglect this basic and highly important difference from one individual to another. It is a critical difference to keep in mind when trying anything especially for the idiopathic cases.
The hope of course which may be remote, is for your doctor to suggest things based on your medical history which is unique to you.
Take care and have a serene day,
gus

Hi, things are never simple, I have CKD, Gout, type 2 diabetes and Neuropathy! I’ve been to various dieticians and each one tells me to follow their diet! I keep things in check by eating child size plates of food, more often through out the day.
I seem to have side effects on most of the Gout medicines. Doctors tell me my symptoms aren’t caused by the meds, but if I test myself by stopping the medicine, I improve! I’ve learned to read all the boring literature from the pharmacy so I know what to look for. I recently stopped a gout medicine after being in it four three years! I could had zero energy and my feet burned so bad after walking. By accident, I slept all weekend and missed my meds. I noticed that my feet weren’t burning as much, my toes were not webbing and I could tolerate even just a sheet in my feet. I told my doctor and he didn’t freak out, but was concerned about “flaring”. He gave me a prednisone script in case I needed it! Listen to your body and run it by your doctor, hopefully they will entertain what your body is telling you!
