Question: I am 13 days away from XXXXXXX for thyroid cancer. I am trying to wean my daughter and it is not going well. I was advised by my radiological-oncologist I could keep nursing, but all the recommendations- including the US Nuclear Regulatory- say otherwise. I cannot cease lactation completely prior to XXXXXXX and due to the quick diagonsis, would not have had enough time since it was just abotu two weeks ago I was diagnosed. what do I do?

Maybe there has been a change in recommendations and they would be the first person to have that being in an academic milieu.

What is the exact difficulty with weaning? Have you spoken with a dietitian about this?
