Voltaren is a good old fashioned NSAID (like Advil etc.) and the #1 side effect is GIT problems. Newer NSAIDS are supposed to be better BUT everybody's mileage varies A LOT with theses drugs. Advil works great for me but the "newer,improved and safer" Celebrex chews my guts out in 2 treatm...

Have you seen any infants 6 months or older who have had the H1N1 vaccine itself ?? any reports from others in your hospital ? would be really interested in real life experience before grandson gets vaccine.

Re: H1N1

We've had a few H1N1 thread discussions so I am just going to talk here. 1. We finally got the follow up safety info and Health Canada released the GSK injectable H1N1 vaccine for general use.
