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.

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.

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.

Last night Hec and I were speculating on possibly trying a course of dittany, which Wikipedia tells me is good for digestive troubles as well as when you've been Splinched.
