Monostat cream always works great for me. I've tried my BF's Lamisil(sp?) before and it burns like heck so no more of that. lol.

Yea you should call your doc and get it documented.

I find that as part of my morning regiment(Sp?) wash , then a squirt of GermX alcohol gel then drying ( I have a fan on in my room all the time or use a hairdryer) And then using medicated powder(generic version of goldbond) works best for me.

Started using the GermX a couple years ago since washing in the creases was causing my skin to dry out badly and it has moistureizers in it that stop that.

I had this issue under my breasts. It was fungal and it kept coming back. Turns out I was washing my bra in cold Water and not killing the fungus trapped in the fabric. I kept reinfecting myself with spores. Make sure your underthings are VERY clean and sterilized.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
