Well, I learned that the mom is on bromocriptine and that dr does not
want her to breastfeed because the whole reason she's on the med is to
lower the prolactin level so the tumor does not grow.  My next question
is, say the bromocriptine lowers her level to about that of the average
lactating woman, would breastfeeding raise her level higher, or would
breastfeeding have little or not effect on her prolactin level? I
apologize if this is not clear.  It's just that I'm confused and
obviously showing just how far over my head this technical stuff
is........Thanks to anyone who can clear this up for me.  Mary
