I was on Naproxen for cervical spondulosis and it was brilliant at easing the pain, but after a couple of months i realised it was affecting my mind. I was at work one night when I couldn't remember what I was supposed to be doing, only momenterily.

My superviser advised me to go home and when sat in my car I couldn't remember how to turn the engine on!!

I went back into work, in tears, I was so worried. My supervisor arranged for someone to drive me home once he had established my OH was at home.

It got to the situation where I didn't know how to do simple, everyday things like making a cup of tea.

So be careful with Naproxen as any side affects don't necessarily appear at once, they can creep up on you over a matter of time

I've had to put up with it for years. As you probably know, gout is a build up of Uric Acid and I take Cherryactive concentrate every day to keep it at bay. www.cherryactive.co.uk will tell you everything you need to know about the product. I did try the capsules once but they didn't work for me so I changed back to the concentrate and am never without it in the house because I can't handle the thought of the pain gout brings with it. It's not a cheap procust but as I don't drink or smoke I don't mind that plus I now don't get gout and I sleep like a baby.
