Dear Pat,

How about using hydrogel dressings with Dr. Jack's ointment?  Also, if I
dare, there are a few homeopathic remedies for oversupply listed in Miranda
Castro's book, Homeopathy for Pregnancy, Birth and Your Baby's First Year.
Any European LACTnetters with experience with these?  I had a French mom once
who used Bryonia for engorgement with good results (it had been sent to her
by relatives in France).  I have had moms use Phytolocca for plugged
ducts/mastitis with very good results (it is recommended for sore nipples,
too.  Any homeopaths in your area?

Also, a quick question: how much sage tea should a mom drink per day for
oversupply.  I've not found a recommended amt.just that it helps via S. Weed.

Hope this helps.  Sorry if my post is bizarrely put together, I'm a novice
computer/net user, remember I still have rotary phones!!
