FASTING
Hello, I just want to let you know that I just had the worst!!!!! GOUT attack!!!! that I could ever imagine while FASTING and it lasted for two weeks!!!!. Well actually, it started when I decided to fast for the LENTEN season and I was doing pretty well for a while when this STUPID Disease just came from nowhere. When I woke up, my foot just felt that someone shot at it and the pain was unbearable. I could not walk for weeks. Then I went to the Doctor and he just gave me VICODINE to ease the pain and he prescribed allopurinol for me to take. I was also told to eat something since he concluded that the cause of the attack was the FASTING that I was doing. Now I am just eating lettuce and berries. I would like to know though if Cheeses and Eggs are okay for Gout sufferers?
