[quote=Anonymous]Just write off your GPs treatment plan and see someone who knows what they are talking about. Does your pediatrician have a lactation consultant on staff? If so, speak with the LC and find out if the doctors are open to treating mother/baby or would be willing to coordinate care with your OB. If that turns out to be a hassle I'd call Kathy McCue who is a LC and Nurse Practitioner out of Bethesda and she'll be able to treat it properly if she concurs with the diagnosis. If you piss around with the full course of Nystatin it's likely not going to work and you'll just be waiting around while the infection gets worse. It will get very painful and difficult to get rid of if it gets deep enough in the milk ducts.[/quote]
