Trichomonaisis

I've had a trich infection for 17 years.  It causes problems, doc gives me Flagyl, and then it goes away but always reappears.  I've had trich every four months even when I've gone years without having sex.  Doc says it is incurable and I should stop whining about it.  Flagyl now makes me nauseous and I want a cure.  Is it curable?  Have all the years of Flagyl made me resistant?

I think it is very possible that your body has become so immune to it that it does not do anything for you anymare. My mother has had that happen to her and has had to find another medication although she does not have what you have. She also has switched doctors a time or two, but it has helped her in the long run.I would definetly reccommend doing a run through on other doctors and see what they are about, because they will probably be able to help you tremendously. It may be all it takes is to switch docs. But my biggest advice is to pray for God  to let his will be done in this, because he lets everything happen for a reason. I hope everything works out! I will also pray for you myself. Good Luck!

It could well be resistant to flagyl (metronidazole).  You could try Tinidazole 2 g orally in a single dose.

The flagyl might be keeping it inhibited in growth so you feel as if its gone away, but not curing it.
