Referring back to my altar of ignorance post and the mom who breastfed post
op even though her doc said not to in spite of me providing Ruth Lawrence's
text as a reference; I Emailed Ruth about this and she said good for the mom
and mentioned its also good she nursed and avoided a fever from not
expressing her milk.
I talked to Ruth today and asked her about this and she informed me that
protein involution in the milk not being expressed can cause a low grade
fever.
I never new this. Pretty interesting.
Good to learn something new everyday as Arthur Calabrese Ph.D., DO, MD (who
was board in 3 specialities) once told me.
