Trev: Not sure what your question is. Do you want to know what caused the blisters or what caused the gout? And yes, blisters do not cause gout.

There are several men at work that have gout. They said that it was a build up of to much (uric acid?). I know that they had to change their diet and watch what they eat. If you want, I could ask them what they needed to cut out of their diet so that they remain comfortable.

Did they give you meds for the gout? If not, try 20 each canned tart pie cherries (NOT pie filling) every day. Old home remedy. And the diet should be no fatty, rich foods (cream sauces, cheese, fried, etc) and no alcohol.
