paz1 Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 HiI am really struggling with recurrent mastitis and wondered if anyone could give me a contact for Claire Kedves at Kings? I saw her a few years ago with first baby and she was amazing but I can't remember if you need a referral from gp or can ring direct etcHas anyone seen her for this reason or can anyone suggest someone else who might help? I am currently on the fifth bout with my third child (happens with every baby but this time it's almost monthly). I got one boob under control with antibiotics only to find the other one has flared up now (still on antibiotics).Feeling pretty horrible and miserable.Can anyone help with contacts?Thankyou in advance Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/54960-recurrent-mastitis-claire-kedves-contact/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
espelli Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 Really sorry to hear you're having such a hard time. She is on a list of breastfeeding support contacts that I was given last week on the postnatal ward at Kings. Claire Kedves 02032993833 or Joanne Joseph 02032999000 ext 32659 Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/54960-recurrent-mastitis-claire-kedves-contact/#findComment-827497 Share on other sites More sharing options...

tomo Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 I'm pretty sure she's just retired or about to...I spoke to her about a month ago re a breastfeeding issue and she said she was going to be leaving in a few weeks. Hope you manage to find someone else to help.

Fuschia Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 Have you come across the idea of lecithin to prevent recurrent plugged ducts? http://kellymom.com/bf/concerns/mother/recurrent-mastitis/ Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/54960-recurrent-mastitis-claire-kedves-contact/#findComment-827553 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fuschia Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 I think I highlighted it once in here and the poster returned to say it really made a difference. Hope you get it sorted. Mastitis is so horrible :-( Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/54960-recurrent-mastitis-claire-kedves-contact/#findComment-827570 Share on other sites More sharing options...
