I get this bad Pain in the side of my head kind of like a headache but it just lasts for few mnutes then it goes and comes back. Probably just stress but I was wondering if meds could alsO cause it

Well, I'm not a doctor by any means but I do have a drug book (I'm a nurse) and I can look up the side effects of any drugs you are currently on to see if it may cause this. Headaches are side effects of many medications. Is the pain dull, sharp, throbbing? Does it tend to happen at a particular time of the day? Could be stress related. If you dont want your meds posted to everyone and want me to look into it for ya just message me, I'd be happy to look for you. But I will say that if the pain is getting worse and worse maybe you should go to a doctor.

I'm on serequel, ceverlux and wellbutrin not sure how to spell sorry it's more like a throbing pain that comes and goes throughout a day or in a couple days.

Do you think it may be a cluster or tension headache? And yes, I know for me at least that sometimes my medications have given me headaches, expecially if I am just starting them. Staying hydrated always seemed to help as well as pinching the top part of my nose. I believe my headaches to be sinus related, so that method may or may not help for you, but it's amazing what good accupressure can do. Another one that helps many headache sufferers is to squeeze the flesh between the thumb and pointer finger as there is a pressure point there.

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...
