    I had really severe pain a few years ago, it took several months for the pain to subside (I assume that as the uric acid was released from my body, the gout actually felt worse) eventually with the allopurinol and a mostly vegetarian diet ( I do not worry about acid-forming veggies – but I don’t eat a lot of any one thing), my gout went away.

    I will say that the only thing that helped the pain (almost immediately) was cannabis. Which I see as a safer route than opioids so long as you don’t make a habit of it. Also evidence is emerging it may be a bad idea for those with heart disease. But it absolutely took the pain away.

    For the past year, I have been indulging in the occasional beer or sardine with no noticeable effects.
