le nubian, call the doctor who prescribed the antibiotics and ask for a prescription for Diflucan. It's an oral antifungal -- only 1 pill. You have to wait until all your antibiotics are done before you take it (not because of a drug interaction, but if you take it too soon -- while you're still taking antibiotics -- then the antibiotics will still be wiping out all your flora, and the Diflucan won't be as effective). It generally starts working in 24-36 hours after you take it.
How obscure is "heuristic"?
Very. Says someone else who got a perfect score on the verbal SATs [brag] and never heard that word until I started editing for IEEE.
Yup. I would say pretty damn obscure for a popular audience.
bonny, that's so cool about the Vitamix!
askye,
brilliant. I will try that. thanks.
smonster,
I will eat all of the probiotics too. I have never done this, nor do I know exactly what this is, but I will look into it.
Tep,
okay, thanks for the Diflucan. I figure these 3 things will ward off the ickies AND no vampires.
And maybe I will poop on the regular too.
Heh. I'm so typical. I would MUCH rather take drugs than put
garlic all up in my junk.
Which reminds me of something that happened at Target last night -- we were in the men's section, and I kept trying to get Tim to buy novelty boxers (he is not a novelty boxer kind of guy). I picked up a pair on clearance that were a Christmas thing, that had tiny hams all over them. I held them out and said, "Don't you want ham on your junk?" A male security guard was walking past at the time, and he busted out laughing when he heard me.
okay, thanks for the Diflucan.
It works very well. I tend to just ask my doctor to write an Rx for Diflucan when he writes the Rx for the antibiotic. I figure if my some miracle I don't get a
yeast infection
from that round of antibiotics, eventually I will, so it's good to have on hand. I don't know why it isn't over the counter.
clearly I'm game for anything. :-)
I wanna know if/how well it works.
I used the
garlic
because I had such a bad reaction to Monistat and the doctor never offered me anything else. I don't know if it wasn't available or I didn't know to ask or what, but I found out about it and tried it and it works.
