Just sitting her it feels like my crotch is on fire from it burning.Everytime I go to the bathroom I itch sooo bad and I end up scratching I cant help it So now were Ive been scratching is bleeding a lil....Could this be ANOTHER infection? Im also getting a milky like discharge I wasnt sure if that was normal or not? Well I have my appt on october 31st should I see if I can re-schedule to get a closer date to get this checked out?

It sounds like your antibiotics haven't quite worked (it's happened to me too) I'd get yourself to the doctors on Monday and they should be able to give you some more. The sooner you go the easier the infection will be to treat. In the meantime drink lots of water and cranberry juice - it's Thanksgiving isn't it, make sure you have a double helping of the cranberry sauce xx

Hun, it sounds like a yeast infection (thrush), which are common during pregnancy... and can be brought on by anti-biotics, which I assume you were given to get rid of the baldder infection. Good luck, I had this when I was pregnant and it is hell.

Yeah....you've got thrush babe coz the antibiotics kill the good bacteria in your body as well as the bad stuff. It's horrid isn't it?

Ask the pharmacist or Dr what they recommend over there for thrush....we have canesten over here which soothes the itch and clears the fungal infection


Drink the Yakult type drinks to increase the good bacteria in your gut again too as this can help your immune system

Like everyone else it sounds alike a thrush to me, maybe your local pharmasict has some cream that you can get over the counter. It cant hurt to try.

Sounds like this to me too honey. The antibiotics can be terrible at causing thrush. You can get over the counter treatments for it, tell the chemist and they should be able to give you some cream and a tablet to clear it up.

yep told u it sounded like thrush, i looked online and it said u cant just go pharmacy and get somethin, u have to go to doctors and get that pessary thing, eat loads of pasteurised yoghurt, also, get a panty liner and cover it with yoghurt, put some up against ur girly bits and then put the panty liner on, it apparently soothes, dont take anything without checking with ur doctor first...

look after urself and my fave niece hun
