Yesterday, Paul commented about his gout, and suggested possible causes. One cause of gout that he didn’t mention is sleep apnea.
You may have heard of sleep apnea. Burton Abrams has commented about sleep apnea and gout, and there is a discussion about sleep apnea in my gout forum. [2008 update - old forum lost. If you want more on this topic, please start a new discussion in the gout forum]
Burt has recently published a book about the perils of sleep apnea, which not only looks at gout, but also other health effects.
