    DH's gout??

    Quote: My Dad gave it to me. He thinks I should make his secret recipe cheesecake every weekend. When I told him I couldn't, using the excuse that I didn't have a springform pan, he went out and bought me one. He also doesn't understand why I can't make one without the top cracking during...

    DH's gout??

    Well he doesn't drink beer (or any alcohol), eat lentils or organ meat. Ask him to give up beef and bacon and you'd be in for a huge fight. He thinks bacon is a food group. And Tipsy? I am making a cobbler tomorrow. It's time for a break from our diet! s I'm also going to be baking a new...

    DH's gout??

    Quote: Thanks Dick! I wondered if cooking the cherries would destroy any benefits, but obviously not since the canned ones are cooked, at least to some extent. He was looking around earlier for a sweet - we've been dieting and there's absolutely no sweets in the house. Tomorrow night I think...

    DH's gout??

    We have to grocery shop tomorrow, so I'll put cherries on the list. He's been asleep most of the day, the darvocets lol, and right now I think that's the best thing for him.

    DH's gout??

    Thanks for your input Steve. The doctor gave him darvocets and told him to take it as often as needed. They don't help his pain much, but they do knock him out so he gets relief. Doctor also told him to take aleve, but no more than three times a week. Told DH he would rather him rely on the...

    DH's gout??

    I always thought feet too, until I read this: http://www.gout.com/what_is_gout/what_is_gout.aspx Green beans are his favorite veggie and I might as well ask him to stop breathing before I ask him to give up pork. The prep H is interesting. Maybe I can hide the label with my hand while I...

    DH's gout??

    Quote: Yep, that's what they put him on. It was $2.40 under his prescription drug coverage. Good to know that its a drug that actually helps. Thanks. Thanks to you too Mom's folly. After tonight he's off for three days, so hopefully he'll use the time to rest.

    DH's gout??

    DH went to the doctor last Thursday because his shoulders, elbows and wrists are hurting him again. We pretty much know what's wrong with his shoulders, but nothing to do about it because his insurance is refusing to pay for surgery. They drew blood on Thursday and called with the results today...
