Multi-day Diflucan?

[Guest guest]

Hi All, I just found you doing a google search. On March 6 I visited

my PCP feeling irritated and itchy. She said oh, probably just a minor

external yeast infection, if it didn't clear up in a few days do an

OTC 3 day treatment. It did get better, but then recurred, so I

treated with 3 day. Sort of got better. Had sex, had horrible

irritation following. Back to PCP who didn't culture for yeast but

said oh, probably HSV put me on antivirals that did nothing. 2 weeks

later felt sort of better but then it came back. Went to local Planned

Parenthood to see real Gyno who said yes yeast, gave me diflucan and I

felt great - for 3 days. Then last Sunday it recurred. I called PP and

nurse told me to take another round of diflucan. I did and used OTC

yeast 3 day too. Not really feeling any better a week later and

mentally I'm going nuts. I changed my diet this past week and am

basically following the candida diet and started taking acidophilius.

I'm definitely calling PP again tomorrow to go in and see the doc

again. has anyone here been put on Diflucan for a longer than a one

time dose?

Guess I just needed to vent and maybe get a little sympathy and

perhaps be told that I'm not going to feel irritated forever.

Thanks
