It could be needed to be checked out by a doctor if you think it's this serious.
Hopefully it starts to get better soon for you.

Yeast Infection.
Well I have been going to a doctor and a gyno. I have two appts this week. I have had this yeast infection for a long time. My doctor and gyno act like its not a big deal. I went online and did a bunch of research. What I read really scares me. According to medical articles online, a vaginal yeast infection can spread to other parts of your body. I actually got into an argument with my doctor about this yeast infection. I told him that he should take this more seriously. Thank you for showing support and interest. I do appreciate it. The people in my life that are supposed to be my support system do not seem to care about my dilemma. Anytime one of my friends or family has an issue, I help them 100%. I give them advice,opinions, do research, ask questions. But they cannot do the same for me. Confused

I have an oral candida infection possibly intestinal as well. My medication did nothing. I didn't see any changes until I changed my diet. Do a google search for candida diet. Candida is the same yeast/fungus that cause vaginal yeast infections. The diet must be followed strictly and it will proably take months to cure. My problem was the food I was consuming was feeding the candida like crazy.

Eat yogurt!
My doctor told me to make yogurt a regular part of my diet and it will help prevent yeast infections. It wouldn't hurt to try.
