Gout!

I'm 5 weeks out, and for the past several days have been having bad gout issues. Prior to surgery I had issues, but was fairly under control with some medicine from the doctors (colchicine and allopurinol). From what I read, it can happen after surgery with the high Protein diet and possible dehydration. I can battle the dehydration, but avoiding high protein is near impossible. Desperate I went out and got the Cherry Extract, which is supposed to be a "natural remedy". Still not working at the moment. Currently, I'm taking colchicine and the cherry extract in hopes it will start to get better. I've been staying away from advil, and just using ice for swelling. Any other suggestions?
