Gout is too painful to be "solved" by diet.

I remember laying in bed with tears streaming done my face from the pain caused by the weight of just a sheet on my big toe and thinking "this is really stupid!" The only diet thing that helps me is to begin drinking massive amounts of water for 12-24 hours. Seems to wash out the uric acids that form those needle-like crystals in the big toe joint.
