Dear Dr. s, I remember sometime ago a post on Lact-net about treatment of a
 mom with a ductal yeast problem. I have a mother i saw today who has been on
150 mg. per day of Fluconazole for 7 days, and topical treatment of sore
nipples with genetian violet. Mother has a one year old nursing toddler 4th
child and has problems frequently with yeast. She waited for 2 months with
this problem before seaking treatment this time. Why ? who knows? Its not
like she didn't have a good idea what it was. But now it seems to have
invaded the ducts. She has broken skin and redness and shooting pains in the
breast that are there pretty much  all the time. Itching and burning on the
skin, and what feels to me as i palpate a plugged duct on one side.  My
problem is this when I talked to her midwife today about keeping her on this
treatment for another 7-14 days. They balked {the OB/GYN Doc} and felt they
needed some kind of documentation that said this protical was acceptable. I
would love just a word from any of you that this is appropriate or a
suggested alternative. We have also talked about ajusting diet, ETC. I was
trying to remember if you posted on this once but its been to long. Hoping to
hear from you. I always hesitate to send messages such as these please if
this is an intrusion just ignore it. I will try and access the archives.
 Thanks in advance. Dee Keith I.B.C.L.C., LLLL, mother of ten BF children.
