In response to "Going to doctor's tommorrow, feet have been swollen for over a year, and now they hurt to walk. Not sure why they swelled and nothing is making it go. -- nm" by Stacy

ask if you have gout. swolen sore feet is a major sign. Gout is a build up of Uric Acid in your system.

if you have gout, you basically have to give up alcohol, red meat & chocolate until it is under control, and even then you should rotate which you have so they do not build up Uric Acid in your system. A shot of hydrocortisone at his office is a quick fix, so do ask for one if he says you have gout.

good luck!
