I'm well aware that water is the cure.

No. Since my big gout flare-ups in the autumn
of 2000, I've always controlled my gout through
prevention, which really is the only way to do it.
That's how I became scrupulous about obeying the
warning signs. The day before yesterday I woke up
with a hint of pain in my foot which I recognized,
and immediately went on the anti-gout diet.
