Hi Cindy,
    I understand that milk may still be produced with minimal regular nipple
stimulation such as sexual activity, breast exams, or even the act of
"checking" to see if milk is still there.
    Otherwise, have you had prolactin levels checked?  Pituitary involvement
would relate to that.  My cousin had milk for at least 15 years after
weaning.  It came up incidentally in a conversation between us.  After having
it checked, it turned out that she had a pituitary tumor which she did have
removed.  She is fine now.
