bttrflyamby1981 Posted September 5, 2006 Report Share Posted September 5, 2006 Hi all,I keep getting yeast infections that even perscription meds don't cure completely. The reason I'm posting this is because I have never had a yeast infection untill I started feeling sick? Could it be related to dysautonomia? I would think so, but would feel better if I'm not alone here. Thanks...and sorry for getting so personal. Amber Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DSM3KIDZ Posted September 5, 2006 Report Share Posted September 5, 2006 I had a few yeast infections with the onset of my illness but haven't had too much of a problem lately. I definitely think their is some correlation but not sure why.Hope all resolves soon.........I know how uncomfortable they aredayna Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ode_to_fantasy Posted September 5, 2006 Report Share Posted September 5, 2006 I get bacterial infections that don't go away, and my doctors can't figure out where they came from. It's rather disturbing and annoying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bttrflyamby1981 Posted September 5, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 5, 2006 Thanks for the reassurance I'm not alone! It's easier to deal with to know I'm not the only one. Just another additive to go with the illness I suppose. Again thanks,Amber Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sophia3 Posted September 5, 2006 Report Share Posted September 5, 2006 I get yeast infections MULTIPLE times and even before my POTS dx.I have tried diet and EXPENSIVE SUPPLEMENTS &*#%@@&^& over the years. Now I am in my late 40's and the hormonal fluctuations can cause this for me as can my yo yo blood sugar....High then low then who knows.I have luck with Gyne Lotrimin and some one dose deal I got from sample at OB GYN office.Monistat BURNS and I can't use similar products.Good luck. This stuff is a drag. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BEE Posted September 5, 2006 Report Share Posted September 5, 2006 Oh yeah Yogurt eating helps especially the Activia.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bttrflyamby1981 Posted September 5, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 5, 2006 I'll have to try the Activia. I have had other brands that seem to help some, but it's almost like I always have an infection. But more mild then it is right now, thankfully.I also read that you can use plain yogurt as a cream. I know it sounds icky, but it has helped with the itching. This is the first time I have used it, but it seems to work better then the pills I have been given.Thanks,Amber Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
