I have gout and reciently had one of my parathyroid glands removed because it was producing to much calcium. The medication I was put on untill the other 3 glands make up the difference is Tums, calcium tablets. 2 tablets 3 times each day.
My gout flared up and I have been dealing with it for 2 weeks now. I will see post surgery tomorrow.
