Hi. The symptoms of continuing plugged ducts, etc, could be *from* yeast.

 I would recommend that for someone who you suspect has yeast, I would
recommend that they go to their hcprovider with Kay Hoover's new 4 page
sheet in hand, as well as the pages on candidiasis from Ruth Lawrence's
book, Auerbach and Riordan's book, and the LC series on candidiasis.  I have
packets made up of these things, as well as a handout that I have written,
cause we get SO many of these a month.  I lend it to people to take to their
disbelieving hcproviders. I also recommend that they get a copy of Tom
Hale's book on Medications and Mothers' Milk ( no financial interest here,
just a satisfied customer, and no telling HOW many of these I've sold for
you, Tom. : D )...and this usually gets people to sit up and take notice.

I also recommend that you look in the LLLI BFAB, the  wonderful LLL text.
You can also do a search for this topic on Lactnet archives. Also, Jack
Newman's sheet on oral treatment with aqueous gentian violet is something I
include.

To do this, send email to [log in to unmask]
that says

Search candidiasis in Lactnet

or
Search yeast in Lactnet

You should get tons of references...order a few at a time from the listserv,
following the instructions.

It may not be yeast, but it certainly is something, and should be evaluated
fairly and knowledgeably.
