Yes cherry juice ,you get it in the health food section usually. I don't think you have to drink much but I know people who swear by it.

AARRRGGGHHHHHH!!!!!!
DH went to the CVS I had the reumie's office call, not there for the Medrol: they sent him to another...for the indo methician we picked up yesterday.

By the time I called CVS and talked to them the reumie's office hours are over, they close at 4:00 and it's now 4:05. I don't need this, I don't need this, I don't need this!

Ps, it could be fibro, too, but it wasn't too inflamed last Wed when I saw reumie. Also did get a lab slip set up so tomorrow I'll be going to most convienent place to get that done. And thank you all for suggestions and good wishes :)

sounds like gout...My son in law gets it often...You should try the cherry juice...Also you need to drink lots of water to flush out the uric acid...and be careful what you eat...
