Seriously, though: only plain yogurt, because the Candida will make a meal out of the sugar in fruit yogurt. Learn from my mistakes.
Yeah, I just did plain Greek yogurt.
Got an appt for 2pm. Hoping I'll be gobbling Diflucan by 3:30.

Spike's Bitches 47: Someone Dangerous Could Get In
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Speaking of candida....
The latest WTF??? web ad I keep seeing (and I see so many) is an ad that's supposedly about how you might have a candida infection RIGHT NOW! And here's "one weird trick" to find out, or fight it, or whatever (seriously, how did the phrase "x weird tricks" become the current snake-oil sales phrase of the web?).
What makes the ad so incredibly WTF??? is that is has a picture, not of a candida infection, or of something in a petri dish.
It's a picture of a baby friggin' xenomorph just after it has burst out of John Hurt's chest in the first Alien movie.

Maybe not what you wanted to hear about right now, David, but maybe it will give you a laugh anyway.

It's as onerous as an alien erupting out of somewhere!

I've had a couple of rounds with thrush. My doctors first want to give me an antifungal mouthwash with lidocaine. In my experience, it does fine at numbing the mouth, but not as well as an antifungal pill for actually making the thrush go away.
My IBS has been miserable the last few weeks. I may have to take up kombucha, kefir and god knows what.

Trust my rage
Moms always talk about using gentian violet for thrush. It works pretty well and you can get it at Walgreens.
eta: i have three bottles at home but that doesn't help you much, David.

Good to know, though, Stephanie.
