Default Second bout of mastitis -- what can I do about this?

Yes, definitely. Hope DS is okay!


Really? Gosh, I thought mastitis developed much more slowly and
required a topical crack or blockage or something. You learn something
new every day. :-)

And thanks, we're pretty sure DS is fine. He has just had a cough
since birth and now occasionally chokes and stops breathing for a few
seconds. They're ruled out pretty much everything really, really bad,
and we're down to thinking it's either a very obscure infection (he's
gone through a course of amoxicillin, but they are going to try
zithromax next) or atypical GERD, since he isn't "spitty." Still, it's
never comforting to have -anything- wrong with one of your kids, and
having him hospitalized, and now having him on an apnea monitor, has
made it all the more scary.
