I apologize if this has already been covered. I had a client call since she
was having a thyroid scan and was told by our radiologist that she could not
nurse for 8 days. Our resources including, Briggs, Dr. Hale, The Answer Book,
all gave differing times. I referred her to Dr. Anderson's 900 number. She
called again to inform me that they advised she never nurse since the
radioactive ions will always have the potential to enter her milk. This is of
great concern that we get this info. right. Please help. If this is correct,
what about the women who have had this done prior to pregnancy? Also, what is
this doing to mom's body? Thanks so much, Dawn., (At the current time, very
much enjoying my teenage son!)
