From Dr. Hale's research - candida does not grow in human milk!  I would tell this mom to go see a dermatologist to see if she really has thrush and go see a lactation consultant about baby's latch.  And why is she pumping?

Subject: scalding pumped milk and candida

Anybody out there ever had experience or heard of research on scalding or "pasteurizing" pumped fresh milk to kill candida?  A mom I speak with has been struggling with thrush in her baby's mouth and now apparently in her breasts too.  Her doctor keeps giving her antibiotics which is making things worse.  Finally, a different doctor gave her fluconazole today and she wants to know if she can take all the milk she has pumped over the course of this infection and scald to kill candida.  She has read that freezing does not kill it.

 In Riorden's book, 4th edition, pg. 305, it briefly mentions this "home pasteurization of the stored milk may be considered" but it does not describe this procedure.  Anyone?
