Hi Sandra here I'm new to the site. I wondered if testing your urine's pH balance an indicator for a gout attack. for example too much acid in urine. The reason I'm asking is because the urine test kit is less expensive than the blood meter.
No, Sandra, absolutely NOT. Your pH and knowing it does NOT tell you if you have gout and if you do, how severe it is. Only the test of your blood or an invasive withdrawal of joint fluid and/or a new dual x-ray-type machine can positively identify your gout (besides an experienced medical professional, if you can find one.) Sorry to shatter your dream.
