She still has flare ups but she can now lead a more normal lifestyle. I will see what treatment she was given and get back to you guys.Callie Barbarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10547998835819282317noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7807879685607816103.post-48042728935922985892012-03-05T23:55:09.186+08:002012-03-05T23:55:09.186+08:00I understand that certain fruit and vegetables are...I understand that certain fruit and vegetables are good<a href="http://www.squidoo.com/gout-is-on-the-increase-in-the-modern-world" rel="nofollow"> gout remedies</a> - particularly apples, cucumbers, pineapple, cherries....WhatHouse.co.ukhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16671244233563417811noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7807879685607816103.post-9832032547048089812012-02-20T08:28:30.576+08:002012-02-20T08:28:30.576+08:00Another useful, interesting post.

Up until now I have been able to keep it in check. The flare ups have been doused with a few doses of the homeopathic remedy colchicum autum. A very few times I have had to take the prescribed medication to get rid of it. This time, however, the attack is prolonged and nasty. I had to get a new prescription and, once the attack is over, I have to go on the preventative medicine. Dear God I hope it doesn't bring on another attack. I am also going to be having therapy for the osteo arthritis which hopefully will provide enough exercise.<br />Thank you so much for this post.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
