I am speaking from y own experience and investigation I have done for me. I do want to make clear the following; Be Careful and thorough......
" Lyrica Warning! Dose too high to begin with, ( Slowly go up on dosage from lowest up to a therapeutic range of relief from the symptoms!) Speak with pharmacist and doctor. Some women have been noted to have died during the FDA testing process, but this information is not readily given out for obvious reasons. I am a woman who has had every side effect that the 0.1% of people have when it comes to 99% of the medications I have tried for various illnesses and symptoms. Many of my reactions are
not even on the doctors information on their little computers they look at when deciding effects of medications and interactions with other medications to prescribe for us.. Lyrica is an awesome drug for nerve pain. I just had severe enough side effects that I end up in the emergency room at the hospital. I have a heart condition which complicates my ability to take Lyrica. I have other medications which when combined with Lyrica make new side effects which can be life threatening also. You need to be careful with this drug. It is how ever, the best drug I have ever taken for my constant nerve pain. I just cannot take it at this time. Look up the testing results and read them carefully. Talk with pharmacist, doctor, and check interactions with all other medications, including over-the-counter medications, and look at the side effects not listed as common, look at the uncommon effects as well. The internet is sometimes good for this and sometimes you must go to better resources such as pharmacy. Be careful with this drug. It can be a miracle drug, and it can be taken at a different time during your day, away from other drugs which may interact badly if taken at the same time, but not be so bad if taken 12 hours away from your other medications. I cry sometimes because I cannot take this medication. I had a few days when my nerve pain was completely gone for a few hours each of these days, and in over 20 years.... almost 30 years I have not ever gone without at least an annoying exposed nerve root in my teeth kind of pain 24 hours a day. ( In my lower spine where I have an exposed nerve) If you can figure out how to take it safely, and it takes the nerve pain away.... God Bless, and I am severely jealous!! But again, do not negate the seriousness of the life threatening effects it can have, especially with women.

My 6mo twin DD's are EBF and just started rice cereal on the first. Everything has been going fine except this morning one of them had a diaper rash (lots of redness around her anus). I read this as one of the signs of an allergy. BUT I did just buy a different brand diaper yesterday (which they have used randomly before w/no issues). Do you think its the cereal or the diaper? Im ready to start...
Best to all,
