Dehydrated & Gout

[bat_fastard 3]

I had gastric sleeve on July 28th. I immediately had problems with Water intake. I needed IV fluids 1 week after surgery. 1 week after that I was hospitalized for dehydration and severe gout in my shoulder, ankle and elbow. I am still struggling to get down the minimum 64oz of Fluid and I feel week and miserable. Any suggestions out there?

You poor thing! I suggest you do whatever your wife tells you to do! Buck up, and drink up! You are definitely having a tougher time than most, and I really do sympathize. Love you, Bat!

I had issues the first day or two out. I had to go into the surgeons office for IV fluids. I was done as a outpatient and went home the same day of surgery. Have you tried you liquids at room temp? I can't do cold liquids right now 11 days out. I drink all my Water at room temp or heated. It is the only way I can get them down.

I was cured of horrible gout pain after 5 months of suffering, and no help from here, or any doctor except life threatening drugs that hospitalized me and nearly killed me. A compound pharmacist saved my life, within 4-5 days. Simple. 2 weeks of fruit and veggies. take six tart cherry capsules, 2 at a time, 3 times a day. Take 3 Celery capsules, at meals, along with three CUramin capsules 3 times a day. Munch on celery sticks. Use Tumeric powder as a condiment, like salt and pepper, the rest of your life, on salads and everything. Too much Protein caused my gout. 2 years gout free and happy. The tears are no more.
