Angie, been having a bout of gout. LOL No, it's not funny. It was the way I worded it. LOL

Anyway, while surfing the web looking for home remedies, I found an article that suggests that one take 1/2 teaspoon of baking soda in a glass full of water. It helps the Naproxen work better. I tried it and it worked! The pain was gone in less than 15 minutes! Only thing is... you gotta watch how much baking soda you use in a day because it RAISES YOUR BLOOD PRESSURE! If you're on a restricted salt intake, I wouldn't try it. I hope you're not, that's why I thought I'd share what I just found out.
