Surely someone knows of a compounding pharmacy around here. Or, I have access to an analytical balance; I could mix it myself IF ONLY someone would give me the ingredients! (Hear that? That's the sound of 100 pharmacists shuddering simultaneously.)Jenny F.

It kind of freaked me out at the time, but on the other hand I thikn I checked and it was ok and damn did it work.Sarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11869813213951981071noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36650952.post-50147998099063827132012-09-05T20:11:13.604-04:002012-09-05T20:11:13.604-04:00There is one.

Sorry. Yo...Have you tried grapefruit seed extract?<br /><br />Sorry. You're probably not in the mood for humor. I'm sorry GSE isn't going to be a magic cure. I spend a lot of time wondering why we haven't yet genetically engineered infants to have antibacterial/antifungal saliva. I mean, what the hell do you scientists do all day that you haven't gotten around to this one yet?bunnyhttp://glumbunny.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36650952.post-40022603526075130432012-09-05T17:18:43.524-04:002012-09-05T17:18:43.524-04:00There has to be at least one compounding pharmacis...There has to be at least one compounding pharmacist in nearby metropolis. I love how the APNO article begins with a lecture on latching. Even if said ointment doesn't cure what's going on internally, I'm sure it would help with the external irritations.<br />Digression to my least favorite part of nursing; Getting thrush, not getting a correct diagnosis for a month or two, curing thrush, then using lanolin after every nursing session combined with air-drying (akward/embarrasing) or cloth nursing pads (visible through most undergarments). At least I didn't have an older male child wandering around asking a lot of questions during that process.<br />Most favorite part ofnursing; Sleeping baby (Child #1), or sleeping baby whose fingers are gripping my earlobe, because I was his lovey (Child #2).Nicolehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03276995787173932700noreply@blogger.com
