chronic infections

What exactly can you do if you have been seen and been treated for yeast infections and no antibiotics oral or suppository has worked to get rid of it? I have had this issues close to two years and doctors seem to be blowing me off about it when I know there has to be a underlining cause for this please help this is literally killing me.

I should have also mentioned that when you are being treated have your other half treated if you are having sex as he could be passing it back to you. This is very important as guys dot show symptoms .

Thank you there was something else i don't think i told you i'm on here asking everyone lol. I had blood work done when I had gone to the ER. They said it was in my blood this is serious that means I'm septic doesn't it? Cant things go real bad from that? I'm just scared about it all. I will wake up and get the kids up for school clean and do my home stuff and by four o clock, I feel sore all over I get a fever but not all the time, nausea,  chills my whole abdomen hurts and it has radiating pain feels like its my whole mid section all the way around my lower back hurts bad everyday. I have had ankle surgeries in the past so I have artificial parts in my body. Can this make it worse? Everything runs through my mind about the possibilities. Also, sometimes at night when lying in bed its a heaviness on my left side. when I was on the suppository antibiotics and laid down for bed I felt a burning and like Icould feel the medicine is that normal ok enough with all the questions this is just really bring me down mentally and emotionally. And yes i found out you can get a prescription of this but one useally will not get rid of it and since i don't know how long  have had it how will they determine this sorry last question talk to you soon have a good weekend.

It depends if its over the counter now there too . Usually Canada is last to do this so you might have it there but haven't noticed . You could also get it online I am sure too. Let me look around and see what I can find out

Damn you sound like the way I was. Anything that went near my vagina would cause a yeast infection. I had bv at one point the yeast then bv them yeast it was bloody hell so I totally know what you are going through. It's so important if you are doing monistat to do it for the longest time possible like 7 days. Also if you can research dufflican I am telling you I don't even use the Canadian version of monistat anymore it's a waste. One over the counter dufflican pill clears it up real good. I keep them on hand just in case but I have def been lucky the last 6 months .

Right now I am in the middle of treatment I go back for an infection check on the 16th I live in the USA Michigan. I have been treated in the past with monistat 3 it started out as BV and when it got bad they said it was misdiagnosed and was regular yeast so that is all I have had for the regular yeast but i'm not sure how long I have even had it. I have been suffering from infection tho for about two years. Is it possible for the infection to go from one form to another. when it all started I had a IUD and got that removed 2 yrs ago but it did not do much for infection at that time they said it was BV (bacterial Vaginosis) sorry about the spelling. I have also tried cutting out so much sugar, cleaning the area after every bathroom brack the soap i use is dial antibacterial i do not douche at all. i have taken a probiotic acidophilus but need to take it regular because i have been forgetting latly other then that nothing else.
