Talk to your doc again and add berries to your daily diet, cherries are best for gout. If you have a good herb store you could check with them. Gout is a biatch to get rid of, my boss tried all the western medicine junk his doc gave him and they didn't help. I got him goin on eating cherries & other berries and it has helped him a lot. some other herbal helpers include Alfalfa, Burdock,Comfrey,Corn Silk, Couch Grass, Dandelion, Fennel, Horseraddish, Oat straw, Parsley, Pennyroyal, Safflower, Sarsaparilla, St. Johnswort, Willow bark, Wood Betony, Yellow Dock, Yucca root.
Gout is caused by excessive Uric acid. Primrose & Safflower will help eliminate Uric Acid build up.
Good luck & feel better soon!! :o)

Find a new doctor. My best friend has it and it is not pretty when she has a flare up. have you gone online and found what foods not to eat?, & Foods that can trigger it and aggravate it? she was amazed at the list, check it out, because the doctor she has is no help either.
