Avatar f tn Well, this morning I had a lot of pain, not in agony pain, but enough to make me very tired and desperately need to lie down by the time I was done in the shower. Took me twice as long as usual to get ready for work, and ended up with BF driving me instead of taking public transportation. I got it filled and took it around 8:30, and noticed around 11 that the pain was now just sore/achy and sooo tired, like if you'd been doing A LOT of lifting of heavy things the previous day.
Avatar f tn my dr prescribed it for me in a patch, but it cost $150.00 for a months supply, and i just can't afford it. if you have good prescription insurance, you might ask your dr for that.
653169 tn?1303446369 I took it for inflammation in my foot. I have a calcification in my acheles tendon. I took an Essential Enzyme with it and had no stomach upset. You can get this at a health food store either online or in your neighborhood. I do know this prescription should not be taken for more than a month or so according to my doctor. So my doc just prescribed Voltaren topical. It's the same thing as diclofenac but topical so you are getting less than 1% of it in your body so it's much safer.
Avatar n tn i have taken diclofenac for over 20 years with no side effects i have had to come off the tablets 75mg x twice day 4 days ago as I am showing some drying of kidneys from another mediation to ensure it is that one i have come off anything whih might affect me.
Avatar m tn Topical Diclofenac Labeling Updated to Match Oral Agents ... : Treatment with all products containing diclofenac sodium, including Voltaren Gel, may increase liver dysfunction, resulting in severe hepatic reactions and liver ... www.medscape.com/viewarticle/713451 I would definitely not take it!
1204528 tn?1588786333 So, what may have happened is that once you stopped taking diclofenac, the level of carbamazepine in your blood went down. Maybe this relieved you of your symptoms. You will still need to take some meds for the pain, isnt it? I think you should visit your doctor - he could prescribe medicines which have less interaction.
Avatar f tn s all my life for different reasons. I also have a long history of allergies in my life (rhinitis, latex, dog and cat hair, contact and atopic dermatitis) and my grandmother was allergic to basically 90% of all drugs. A couple of weeks weeks ago, I was feeling unwell, so I took 600mg of ibuprofen and something for the fever (I don't really remember what it was) twice a day for a week and then went to the doctor because I was not getting better.
Avatar f tn Yes u will cuz some women dont start getting their milk in till a few days after bb arrives b patient it will come in soon!
Avatar f tn Hi I have noticed today while in the bath that both of my breasts are lactating I am Not PREGNANT I had my last child 18 months ago but never breast fed....nothing like thiws has happened before anyone one got any ideas as to what maybe the problem.... I wear a bra everday nothing has changed in my breasts ie when i was pregnant they were sore and heavy none of that is happening...
Avatar n tn didn't you JUST post in the teenpregnancy forum that you THINK YOU ARE pregnant? now you're saying you're not pregnant? so which is it...are you or aren't you?
Avatar f tn You don't get breast milk in until 2-6 days after you give birth. First thing that is produced is colostrum, which is clear, milky, orange or yellow in color. That is the nutrient rich and thick stuff baby gets first. The more baby breast feeds the more your body will make the milk. Breast size doesn't matter in production of milk, you should make milk just fine. But you do need to drink a lot of water to produce enough breast milk. So keep hydrated after you give birth.
2112967 tn?1339022368 I am 28 weeks along and by this time in my first pregnancy I was leaking (or lactating) and so far with this pregnancy I have yet to start leaking/lactating. Is this ok or normal? The baby is fine and is actively moving every day and every test and ultrasound I've had has been normal. Could there be some other reason as to why I haven't started leaking/lactating yet?
7585726 tn?1397871765 My right nipple hurts & something came out of it. Some sort of liquid, I kno bcuz its a little spot in my top that's harden. Does this mean the milk is getting ready for the baby? & how much more is more than likely expected to come out.
Avatar f tn Thank u so much for your input! It is most appreciated.
Avatar f tn If your having nipple issues I would get it checked. Idididn't know you could "lactate" that early in pregnancy, and I didn't know your colostrum could clog you.. I'd just probably get it checked to be in the safe side.
8171031 tn?1399327634 I'm 22 weeks and I just noticed in one cup of my bra it's wet... is this breast milk? And if so is it normal for it to start on one side?
Avatar f tn i was going threw the same thing but i took test after test and they should up negitive. After about 7 1/2 weeks of pain in my breast and fluid i went to the hospital for throwing up and little did I know I was pregnant wait a while and take another one okay...Hope everything works out.
Avatar n tn Yes- it can be! It's usually not milk but you can leak colostrum- which is what comes in before the milk will.
Avatar n tn I am in my 34th week and I am not lactating yet. during what stage should I be expecting lactation?
Avatar f tn This may sound silly but I'm wondering when I will know that I have milk in my boobs.....
Avatar n tn She is probably producing colustrum. Comes at all different times, very often even a day or two after delivery! Don't worry. Just consider yourself lucky you aren't leaking yet!!
Avatar n tn Clear lactation of colostrum is normal but I'm not sure about the brownish color, you may need to go to the doctor just in case. I had to wear nursing pads a few months before my baby was born because i leaked clear stuff. HOpe this helps!
Avatar n tn Many arthritis sufferers are in a panic over the shortage of Voltaren gel (diclofenac sodium gel) and I get why they are worried. Voltaren gel is a prescription topical anti-inflammatory gel used for all kinds of arthritis pain: rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, and osteoarthritis of the knees, hands and hips. People who have stomach issues from taking anti-inflammatories by mouth can bypass that problem with Voltaren gel.
