's swollen painful ankles?

[Guest guest]

Just a quick note to say I spoke too soon! Still have the pain? Does

anyone have gout in this group or osteoarthritis in the toe bones?

I'm beginning to worry now about my kidneys? Any comments would be

appreciated. How ironic, I get the dog cause they tell me to walk

for my degenerative disc disease & now my feet hurt!!! Ah...life is

grand! Sorry to be complaining, but I am anyway.....love & best

wishes to all....

My uncle suffers severely from gout in his legs. I did some studying

up through natural health magazines, articles and internet, and

found that eating cherries whether it be fresh or canned daily is

supposed to help with gout. There is some type of natural

antioxidant or whatever they call it that helps to relieve it. One

must eat quite a lot of cherries. I think it was equivalent to a 1/2

to a pound a day. Less if concentrated, if that is possible. But

even a smaller amount might be able to help some of the symptoms.

I can't tell you if it worked for my uncle, because he is the type

that doesn't want to change his ways and help himself. So he still

suffers terribly from it.
