Finished the antibiotics earlier today! YAY! So the issue they were treating is solved and also the anal fissures seem 90% better. My standing issue is what my doctor still believes is an external yeast infection. The yogurt seems to help slightly as does Egyptian Magic (a sort of cream with very few ingredients and is very natural). But now my doctor wants me to use Lamisil twice a day and then Peneten as many as 5x a day. She said if it's not cleared up in 3 weeks she's sending me to a specialist. So annoying. I'm not sure how I'm going to handle all these various applications. I'm sort of torn. Do I keep trying what I've been doing the last few days that seems to be maybe helping slightly or do I get more aggressive and use what the doctor wants me to do. I want/need these issues healed up but I hate what various meds can do to the body. I'm happy though at least it's not more pills. I wish I already had a naturopathic doctor that I trusted...I am on the search for one but haven't found the one for me yet. I guess I'll probably do what my doctor recommended and try to do the yogurt application once a day if I am able...and if not then at least eat it. Need to get this healed so I can get back to my workouts and daily life without being on fire and being severely itchy.
Aside from that, my energy is coming back and is actually feeling quite a bit better then it has in a long time. My digestive system is still out of whack but I expect that for a couple days at least. I think I've definitely had a good clean out thanks to the lovey antibiotics. Hopefully not too much damage done though with the high strength probiotics on board too.
Was nice today to be able to get out though and my body cooperated. Went to appointment...ran a few errands, did some shopping...got new running shoes (reg $149 at 50% off and then I had a $50 gift certificate that I won from them...so under $40 for a pair of sneakers that fit me really well and give me good support). Enjoyed time with mom. It was just an overall good day...even despite the doctor appointment and needing more meds.

I\'m so glad you are feeling better.Do be sure to have your pharmacist check for Interactions. I know that lamisil can interact and be hard on the liver..
Hope everthing continues to get better.!
