First of all, welcome to the forums AK, hope you find them useful. Second of all a little disclaimer - my opinions are my own, I'm not a doctor and not a representative of DAFNE. |

Hi, thanks for the welcomes and your replies! I wasn't looking for anything in particular, I was just curious to know how other people handled these little queries that you don't really go to your doctor about. |

I noticed Mountain Dew says its unsuitable for pregnant women, which is scary enough to put me off! |

I am wary when I see it usually.... especially for certain feet treatment. It's only been at routine checkups that I've asked about this sort of thing and, well, when it came to my feet, the nurse recommended that I just let the problem solve itself than relying on any products. The problem (a Verruca) did just go on it's own on that note - took it's sweet time though lol. |

I must admit I dont really look at the warnings on products, I belive they are just there so as novorapidboi put it 'the company can cover themselves'. |

I used to ignore the warning - after all I've had Type 1 diabetes since birth and no problems...... until now when I developed Diabetic Foot Ulcers. I will now adhere to warnings. |
