More than 12 million americans live with gout, but many feel like they are navigating this disease on their own. The Gout Support Group of America is here to change that, by improving the lives of people living with gout through education, empowerment, and community.
More than 12 million Americans live with gout. But if you’ve ever felt like you were battling it by yourself, you’re not alone in that either.
Too many people are told to just “watch what they eat” or “take a pill when it flares.” Too many are left Googling at 2 a.m., wondering what went wrong or what comes next. And far too many never hear that long-term relief is possible.
That’s why we’re here. That’s why this community exists. That’s why you found us.
Our Mission Is Simple:
To change what it feels like to live with gout. To make sure no one has to navigate this disease alone again.
Through education (that actually makes sense), empowerment (because you deserve to feel in control), and community (the kind that gets it, because they’ve lived it too), the Gout Support Group of America is rewriting the narrative around gout.
Our Ambassadors are real people living real lives with gout, parents, runners, veterans, bakers, weightlifters, retirees, weekend hikers, and newly diagnosed warriors. They’ve been through it. The late-night flares. The ER visits. The trial and error. The frustration. The stigma.
Now they’re using their voices to help others feel less alone. They’re speaking up. Telling their stories. And changing the game.
