The wife and I were called back last year due to MIL health problems.
First it was an enlarged heart, then it was liver cancer, and several hospitals and doctors later it turned out to be gout. She gets some very painful bouts; foot, ankle and knee swelling making it impossible to stand up sometimes, let alone walk.
Apart from the wife, the rest of the family just ignore her when she gets an attack and come back when it's over. Doctor gives her a cortisone injection if we take her to the hospital but no tablets or advice on diet. Local gossip tells her not to eat chicken and that's about it.
So, I ask TD members if they have any advice. What diet do you recommend to alleviate the symptoms. What over-the-counter tables are available to lessen the pain of an attack?
All and any advice welcome, although popping off the MIL is not an option.
