Gout can be nasty. I have two friends with that. I've been having really nasty leg, forearm and hand muscle spasms. The hands and forearm is ok but annoying. The legs cramps though are bastards and mostly happen in the middle of the night. I have to jump out of bed and stand on my feet and that usually does but some are really stubborn and I land up walking around the house to get them to relax. Sometimes the leg is sore the next day and land up limping.
