I drink 14 cans of beer a week - 2 a night. Do you think that could be the cause of my gout?

Absolutely! Stop all alcohol.

But will take some time to fix after you stop drinking.

Can introduce some of the suggestions (dry white wine, vodka etc ) above once gout clears. But only one at a time.

The doc said the amount of beer I drink isn't an issue.

He told me to drink more water we I have been doing.

Its 11.26am.

I have been for 7 pisses so far today.

Awesome.

Try going off gluten for a week and see if it helps.

Your quack is a moron. How about listening to people who have had the condition and actually cured it rather than some some clown with a (bullsh"t) diploma. These guys know nothing about health. They're merely paid shills for the drug companies.

Gout is a painful form of arthritis that occurs when high levels of uric acid in the blood cause crystals to form and accumulate in and around a joint. Uric acid is produced when the body breaks down a chemical called purine. Purine occurs naturally in your body, but it's also found in certain foods. (Mayo Clinic)

Add a bit of lemon juice to your water. Surprisingly, although acidic, when it is broken down in your body it becomes alkalinic countering the build up of acidity.

I stick with wine and notice if I drink beer or liquor it starts.

Definitely get it under control because it can progress to major joints like your knees or worse. It completely deformed my big toe on my right foot.

Eat foods that are low in purines and on the alkalinic side.

NSAID medications stop inflammation but are very hard on the stomach especially when consuming alcohol, and can lead to ulcers if used regularly. My doctor prescribed me a very strong prescription of NSAID and I once ignored the advice and drank while taking it. The result: I shit out blood the next day. I don't take them any more. I don't need them any more.

I thought I had gout until I went off gluten.

Febuxostat
Google it.
After a Lot of pain,4 years pain free.
And i can Drink what i want,a Lot.

Gluten has nothing to do with gout.
Only with purine,so its about what you out put in your bread.
