I seem to be forever trying to help(and glad to do it!) with this ongoing "is it candida?" woman with the 14 mos. old. The latest tidbit: no less than 3 doctors have told her she cannot have a yeast infection because she "has to run a fever and also have scaly nipples." Most recent doc put her on cephalexin 500mg bid x 7d to be followed with a single dose of diflucan 150mg "to take care of the yeast you may get from the antibiotic." This is a new Ob/gyn to whom she asserted at the outset:"If you tell me to stop bf as did my other docs., I am walking out of here right now." The doc said nothing about stopping bf (smart man) Any input? She still has overall breast pain, primarily unilateral (interesting to me, but I read in the literature it can be one breast affected), and one reddened nipple - the other slightly reddened. Does not want to come in for an in person consult...all telephone still. Linda Pincus,RN,IBCLC
