I don't have any great solutions but for the cases mentioned: Heidi, Why is there the idea that weaning would solve the problem? Is this mom immune system OK? Christine, I don't know that inhaled steroids are associated with thrush of this severity. Is mom rinsing her mouth after her inhaler use? Yes, acclovate my be an idea for her. PS for any who haven't guessed, Im on call the office is slow and my wife is away for the day. I will have to go home to my dog though. -Rob *********************************************** The LACTNET mailing list is powered by L-Soft's renowned LISTSERV(R) list management software together with L-Soft's LSMTP(TM) mailer for lightning fast mail delivery.
