Talk to your doctor. I had a situation where I started out breastfeeding and then had an emergency appendectomy, so I was without breastfeeding for a couple of weeks I think. When I asked the doctor if I could start up again, he said sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't and gave me some pills to stimulate the milk again. Sorry, I don't remember what the name of the pills where :(
I was able to go back to breastfeeding but it took some work. The longer you wait though, the harder it will be. It's worth a try though. Ask your doctor as soon as possible about those pills and see if it works for you. I hope it helps!
