Guest guest Posted April 4, 2006 Report Share Posted April 4, 2006 Thank you to everyone who wrote back with ideas/moral support in my anguish! I wanted to say that my naturopath (who works primarily in bio identical hormonal therapy for diseases of aging) prescribed 7 days of diflucan (flucanazole) at my insistence. Since I was losing my mind from the urethritis and bladder irritation, I wanted to be absolutely sure it was not somehow a candida infestation before I submitted to the urologist's suggestion of interstitial cystitis therapy (compliments of the pharmaceutical industry, guaranteed to perhaps work withing 3 to 6 months of daily dosage). Strangely enough, the idea of a massive week;s dose of an antifungal was my dentist's idea. I was a little mean to him when he suggested it. I think I owe him an apology. Improvements have been steady and dramatic. I feel 99 % better. No twinges yesterday. Perhaps a hint of one this morning, but right now absolutely free. I feel like my old self. However, I feel very warned by this development. To me, it means that I need to detoxify, a so many of you tell the rest of us. I thought I was doing that, but apparently not enough. I am ready to try fasts. Does water and organic lemon juice sound like a good fast for a day? God bless, --------------------------------- Messenger with Voice.
