Guest guest Posted December 22, 2003 Report Share Posted December 22, 2003 Probably the only way that Diflucan would cure VV/VVS is if the doctor misdiagnosed it. Or if one had both and the VV/VVS was caused by the yeast infection. Remember, they don't know the cause of VV/VVs. You insist that there is no " cure for vv/vvs " , only remissions or treatment. But a permanent remission with no further treatment would be a cure to my way of thinking. Ora >If Lynn wants to get a woman's hopes up that long term usage of Diflucan is >going to cure her, fine.
