Feel for you....
My cure, Grab the joint its in  , manipulate vigorously , scream and cry , drink (2) gallons of water on empty stomach immediately.
I try to use the joint it is in as much as possible. Has not lasted more than a day since I started this regimen. I get it about 1x every 6 months. Usually after a day in the field with no eating, followed by a night of heavy drinking and BBQ then next A.M..... |

Quoted:
Colchacine ASAP. Allopurinol for maintenance. Indocin if you want to hurt for 3 days before it goes away. Eat cherries. Drink lots of water. No beer, steak, shellfish or sandwich meat.....sorry. This is a wise man's statements. After 10 years of not wanting to get on a pill every day, I finnally gave in and started taking allopurinol. I still get a flare up every now and then, but it is because I am eating way too much of the banned foods list at once

Indomiacin works for me. I use to get flare ups three to four times a year. Really started watching what I eat and drinking lots of water. My biggest problem is red meat. Still, I havent had a flare up in over a year untill today... Took the Indomiacin and forgot how bad it tears my stomach up. So I was miserable for about 4 hours. I am much better now. I tied the alpurinal a couple times and actually had more flare ups. Doc said it sometimes happes
