This is mainly for a friend. I myself have had mastitis only twice and I have had seven kids and breastfed them all. My friend who only has 4 oldest 8 and youngest 1 yr. Has had mastitis 18 times. One month ago she started to get it and broke out in a rash all over body, fever, chills, etc. They put her on antibiotics. Now today it happened again really fast. She went from fine to really sick in a hour. Is there any hope that she can figure out what causing this and get over it. The female doctor tonight as soon as she heard she had four kids was done with her. Just gave her her RX and left the room. What else can she do?
