Just thought I'd add in my two cents. My daughter had issues with UTI's and her pediatriction suggested we not let her take bubble baths or use scented soaps until the issue was resolved. That seemed to do the trick and now we use Ivory only.

I wish it was that simple for me. I haven't had a bath in 27

years since my mom made me take one because she thought I would fall down in the shower after my C section.

showers only for me.

Denise,

Have you tried taking Probiotics on a daily basis, thereby maintaining a healthy bacteria in your body. I've only had one vaginal yeast infection due to antibiotics and have had chronic bronchitis and been on lots of antibiotics in my day. I used to take acidolphilus every day, but there are much better Probiotics on the market now. I take one called acidophilus pearls, made by Enzymatic, they are very small & easy to take. Their website is www.trupearls.com Worth a try? Good luck!

I am taking acidolphilus every day. I just increased the doseage. They had the pearls at the health food store, but they told me that this acidolphilus is better.

Which probiotics are better than acidolphilus? On the website you gave me the link to, there are several different boxes of pearls. I can't tell what the difference is.

      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.
