I had very painful let down's, I also had over supply.  There was a discussion
of this on the Acad. BF MEd listserv and a few mentioned (with out evidence
though) using Mg! I tried it, I think it helped, I still had oversupply and
forcefull let downs but they weren't as painful, fixing the oversupply is
really the key though

there was a funny quote in one story in the book "Fresh Milk, the 
secret life of
breasts" where a woman with a difficult breastfeeding experience said that
(paraphrase) the next time someone tells her that let down can be a tinglin
sensation, she will come after them with a proctoscope, her doctor said it can
be a bit "uncomfortable"



> Sounds like a possible case of over abundant milk supply or too 
> forceful let-down (MER). There is good information on this in THE 
> BREASTFEEDING ANSWER BOOK.
