i heard two Excellent talks by Linda Killion Healow at the LLL conference in
1996. one concerned Allergies and one Meds, and i seem to recall hearing the
story about a nipple cream being used in england which contained peanut oil.
when the Babies in the study became old enough to eat foods containing
peanuts, there were several cases of severe allergic response. i don't seem to
find this listed in the Bibliography, and i may well have remembered it from
another source, but i have definitely heard this Example given before.
her Knowledge and experience with this subject leads me to believe she might
know about this anyway. perhaps someone knows how to Contact her if a definite
reference is needed (and it would be good to have one)?
