    yeah keep off things with sugar, soft drinks, and breads for a bit
    it wont help with the symptoms, but will stop feeding the yeast infection and making it worse.
    got any bepathdine?? Or jock itch cream??? or cream for tinea???
    at very worse a salt bath might give you some relief
    but not too hot as it will make it hotter
    paw paw cream will sooth a bit

    Thanks girls.
    I do have some vinager, so i could try that.

    Last night i smothered the insides with paw paw and while it didnt remove the itch it did ease the pain and i was able to sleep, no idea if its safe.. I also drank heaps of water before bed..

    Yesterday was my dd party so i probably fueled it with the softdrink and stuff i ate, i didnt think of that!


    Like i said ive never had to do much more than eat a tub of youghurt and its gone, so this is new for me, my mum and sister however suffer regulaerly with it, i text mum last night but she had just given stuff to my sister yesterday lol

    I have only had it a couple of times in my life and OMG it is painful! Last time I did the clove of garlic because it was friday afternoon and the pharmacy was shut until monday morning. Can you scratch up a couple of dollars? In the car, under the couch cushions, kids piggybanks? If you do the garlic way, follow it up with the yoghurt when you are feeling better to reintroduce the good bacteria.

    Anila, I would drink as much water as you can.

    Also, have you tried panadol for the pain? You never know, it might help????

    Good luck with it!

    Im making sure i only drink water today, i have been really slack the last few weeks especially when i was taking the antibiotics, which probably hasnt helped.. and im still sick and need to get the repeat filled, but short of cash and with this going on im a bit reluctant!!

    Going to take some panadol and veg out on the lounge in my pjs on this rainy public holiday cause im still sick... and will try the vinager when i have my shower, i have it in a spray bottle so will try that lol

    Could you ask a good friend or family or someone for something? Even if it's for a garlic clove!
    Good luck, thrush is horrid

    no one has anything and my sister is currently going through it too so shes using her stuff but....

    I had a shower and used the vinager in the spray bottle, it did sting a little, but im back on the lounge pj pants only no underwear and it actually feels heaps better, so i might try that again before bed with paw paw as well!

    Thanks Girls u have been so great with all ur suggestions, hopefully this will either go away before wed or at least be more manageable till i can get to the chemist!!
