Just wanted express gratitude to the Lactnet community for the discussion on
coconut oil.  When it was mentioned a month or so ago it caught my eye.  My
daughter has been dealing with persistent thrush for over six months...it
has been cultured twice and confirmed diagnosis and specific
prescriptions...not to mention all the otc treatments either of us had heard
of.  Her baby is 18 months and unaffected.  The infection was severe enough
to cause our local bf MD to grab her camera for pics!  My brain-storm was to
try a tanning bed which actually was working until it suddenly flared up
again.  BUT the coconut oil seems to have done the job!  Three weeks symtom
free and healing complete...however, she is afraid to stop using the coconut
oil now!  I can't say I blame her!  Any problem with her continuing to use
it?
Thank you!
