I've been in the sciatica group for about 1 weeks, until yesterday when I learn I don't have sciatica, more over I have gout along with a pinched nerve in my left hip. So I'm relocating from the sciatica group over to the gout group. Hope to share my insight with you.

Gout is more commonly known to effect the large toe. but it can effect other areas of the body. Case in point I've just learn I have gout in my left knee and it has nothing to do with beer drinking or alcohol consumption. At best I have 1 beer every 2 or 3 months. My main issue is I like soft drinks too much which contains high fructose corn syrup.

In order to combat my gout I need to drink more orange juice, eat more cherries etc. Also, I'll be turning to more of the holistic side of things for the herbs and oils or elixirs to help with the healing process.
