    • Close Gout

      I developed gout while serving in the military. I left the service with a disability rating so at least the VA can help me take care of this disease. I'm 35 and have had Gout since I was 29. Most of my attacks are somewhat mind and lingering although I have suffered several extremely painful attacks in both feet and once in my left knee (which was my worst attack I've ever had). Just lookin for other success stories that I might learn from.

      Treatments
