My grandfather use to get gout after eating certain foods but it would go away--though it was very painful.


Didn't they use to refer to gout as the "Rich Man's Disease"?


I don't want to sound negative and all...Do you think you might be having symptoms of a heart attack or Stroke/TIA's? My step-father was having neck, shoulder and arm pain that he all ignored before having his TIA(mild stroke). I would bring it up to your Doctor.
