Hi dear, I have gone through your case and I can understand your concern. It's important for you to follow these lines on your diet: A. Drink 10 to 12 glasses of water a day. Avoid dehydration. B. Refrain from alcohol (beer, wine, liquor). These will worsen your symptoms or trigger a new attack. C. If overweight, you need to begin a weight loss program appropriate for you. D. Avoid crash diets. These will also precipitate an acute attack. E. Foods to avoid: Purine-rich foods such as sardines, anchovies, red meat and organ meats (liver, kidney), dried beans, shrimp, and sweet bread.
Hope this answers your question. If you have additional questions or follow up questions then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your questions. Wishing you good health.
