Becky Butler wrote about a mother experiencing breast pain.  There are many
potential causes, quite a few of which Becky had already explored.  Becky,
I've known of a few instances in which mothers described this type of pain.
In some, it seems to be related to a history of fibrocystic breast lumps,
and those mothers MAY respond favorably to the addition of 800 mg. of
Vitamin E (d-alpha tocopherol) daily, taken orally.  That's a pretty common
recommendation for the fibrocystic condition, along with elimination or
limitation of caffiene intake.
