Hi Dorian,
I do not have a ‘formal’ treatment plan template, because each gout sufferer’s needs are different.
Instead, I make note of the history and facts that you record in your gout profile. I use this information to advise you of different options for treating your gout. It is important to record as many relevant facts as you can in your profile.This should include every uric acid test result, with dates. It should also include any herbal medicine that you take, with dosage.
I know you have ruled out pharmaceutical treatments, so I will proceed to advise on your other choices. Most significant for now is diet. Again, I do not believe in a “one size fits all” diet plan. Good gout diet is all about permanent changes to eating habits, and it must include foods you like, and avoid those you do not.
Let’s start with your gout profile, and let me know as much relevant information as you can. In addition to what I’ve mentioned, I also need to know your height, weight, and activity levels.
The daily sequence would be to update your profile, then post questions, opinions, or experiences in the forum. This need not be every day, but less than 3 days a week is usually insufficient.
