Hi HTH,
Thanks for telling me about that, I had no idea jaundice was so common
in babies. I'm glad to see that that won't prevent me from benefiting
(I hope) from Diane-35. In addition to the Spiro and Diane-35, I'm
gonna add laser hr into the mix in about a month and after that I will
come back here and post my results. Cross you fingers for me.
