Dear Lactnetters,
I just started working with a mom with a neuropathic pain disorder.
The disorder has caused her pain for many years, but only after
beginning to breastfeed has she experienced pain in her breasts &
nipples. Because of the disorder, it is very difficult to identify
breastfeeding related pain (as opposed to neuropathic pain.) Mom's
breasts and nipples appear WNL.
Does anyone have experience working with a mother with a neuropathic
pain disorder? I would appreciate any suggestions.
Thank you,
Erica Charpentier, IBCLC, RLC
