I was asked by a friend to research treatments for mastitis that do not involve 
antibiotics.  Her relative is 8 months pregnant, has symptoms of mastitis (hot 
red painful breast, flu-like symptoms, fever) and does not believe in using 
antibiotics.  An archive search gave me three books to recommend, but I 
wondered if anyone has personal experience with success in using probiotics 
(which she is currently doing) or other natural remedies.  I have no experience 
in this area and my friend is interested in any wisdom this group can 
contribute.  Thanks.
