Rose: I assume your patient with Marfan's was advised to discontinue breastfeeding prior to surgery, due to the effects of the anesthetic medications. If so, this is unnecessary, only a brief interruption would be necessary. Most of these medications are now in my last two book editions. Lastly, Jack Newman and I are coming to San Diego in October 6-7 to give a two day lecture series. Have you received a flier or any notice of this yet? Our organizer was late and I'm worried no one knows about our conference. http://www.perinatalpub.com/enroll/ If you've not heard, let me know and I'll send you some fliers.
