Riding, diet and gout
This has been a good year for me cycling wise. Probably more riding this year than I've done in the last 10.
It has also been a social summer. A lot of beers and BBQ.
Well, 2 days ago, I woke up with foot pain. I thought I just wore some poorly made sandals and there was not enough support, but after 2 days it got worse, I went to see the doctor and he told me I had gout!!!
I guess it can be a an age thing. Very active, but 1 out of 3 (active, food, alcohol) and it will still get you.
I like to use natural cures along with modern medicine, but there is very little out there, so I am taking pills, then some more pills
