my husband has gout, so im familiar with the pain and swelling.

recently, ive been feeling some minor soreness in my toes seconds after eating sugar. its crazy how fast it happens. i even feel it after eating 20-30 raisin.

i can avoid it by taking cherry extract and gout pills (celery seed) before eating sugar.

for a while, my heart would pound if i had too much sugar, but that went away.

for the most part, we eat very well. only eat junk food on cheat day friday. my toes always hurt on friday

any ideas? gout seems to not quite fit
